THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - Verizon's voice mail service in California will be unavailable for a short period early Sunday (Aug. 10) when technicians upgrade the system's software.

Work on the system will begin at 12:01 a.m. Sunday and will last between 45 minutes to 3 hours. During that time, callers will be unable to leave messages, and California voice mail subscribers (about 700,000 customers) will not be able to access their mailboxes. Normal telephone and Internet services will not be affected.

"We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this upgrade, which we will complete as quickly as possible," said Margaret Serjak, vice president of operations for Verizon's West Coast region. "We thank our customers for their patience as we make improvements needed to ensure continued reliable voice mail service."
