SpinVox, the world's first voicemail-to-text service, is partnering with video mobile network 3 in a UK first. SpinVox is being offered directly to 3 million customers on the UK's first video mobile network. Now 3's customers can choose to receive voicemails as text messages, further enhancing 3's mobile services.

3's Marketing Director, Graeme Oxby. "This is one of the best new voicemail services in years. Our customers want to get their messages wherever they are, so even if they're at the cinema or tied up in a business meeting they're never out of touch with this innovative voice-to-text service."

SpinVox CEO, Christina Domecq, says "SpinVox has been very popular from the outset, with over 25,000 users signing up for the service since it was launched in October 2004. Partnering with 3 gives us an exciting opportunity to enable even more people to try it out. Over 80% of people who sign up for a free trial of SpinVox voice-to-text stay with us and many wonder how they managed without it."

3 has pioneered 3G in the UK with a leading range of video mobile services from the first video calling service in the UK to live pop gigs delivered directly to 3 handsets. 3 was also first to launch a unified mailbox allowing customers to listen to their emails and videomail, an innovative video answer machine. SpinVox is the latest addition to 3's market-leading range of next generation mobile services.

SpinVox was awarded best innovative service at the Mobile News Awards 2005, more information can be found at www.spinvox.com. 3 recently won "best new brand" at the Marketing Society Awards of Excellence.
