Nuance Cans SpinVox Consumer Service, Canning Staff Too

When I spoke with SpinVox buyer Nuance, as it began planning the future for the voicemail-to-text firm last month, it said it would pitch the service harder to network operators, stop offering new direct consumer accounts, but continue to maintain the service for existing subscribers.
That latter part now appears to be changing. UK users on Thursday started receiving SMS notification (how appropriate) that the service would end in seven days.
Today, Nuance sent me this statement…
VoxSciences operates a similar service to Spinvox and would welcome any ex Spinvox customers. You can register for a free trial at http://www.voxsci.com
“Nuance is continuing with the integration and consultation process in relation to the acquisition of SpinVox and therefore it would be inappropriate for Nuance to comment at this stage.”
It’s good to know Dilbert is still working with Nuance in the PR department.
