Hi all.

I have a 3300 MIVB8 with embedded voicemail auto attendant. I would like to turn off the "You are being transferred to" prompt such that transfer is silent.
I have read some posts were this was achieved via TUI technician passcode however they don't give details. I know in MIVB9.1 there is a check option in VM Options to disable prompt.
How is transfer prompt turned off in earlier releases such as MIVB8?
 
Technician Code only change prompts when user's phone is busy and the other when they don't answer.
I don't believe they will assist in your setup if that was what you were after.

If transferring directly to a mailbox to leave a message then you can try Message Only mailbox.
But if you are using Transfer only mailbox to transfer calls via AA options, then you will end up with this unfortunately.

Like you, I have yet to find a solution to this,

I am indeed using Transfer only mailbox.
 
This probably won't excite you too much but rel 9.1 has the following option

Disable Prompts on Auto Attendant Transfer
This feature removes Auto Attendant Voice Prompts that play redundant information. This makes the Auto Attendant experience quicker. Some Voice Prompts are trivial and can be suppressed/skipped as needed.
A new option called Enable Prompts on Transfer has been added under Auto-Attendant Transfer in VM Options form. The default is True (Enabled).
If the feature is disabled, the prompt played before the transfer saying “You are being transferred to <Mailbox Name/Number>” is not heard. The next prompt, “I am sorry, <Mailbox Name/Number> is busy/unavailable” is heard for unanswered calls.
