voicemail notifications.

Hi. Is it possible to get a notification by text if someone’s left a voicemail? It was a service provided by my previous supplier and I got used to it. Unfortunately my phone history doesn’t show the number if it goes to voicemail.

thanks Daphne

You can change the way you are notified about new voicemail messages. You can either receive a text message (SMS) or receive on-screen notifications.

Call 443

Press * to get to the main menu.

Press 4 for Mailbox Settings.

Press 1 for Notification options.

Press 1 to enable text notifications or press 3 to receive on-screen notifications

Hi there 🙂

When someone rings you the number will be logged in your phone regardless or not if the call goes to voivemail.

Just go into call settings and you will see missed calls

thanks

Hi @daphnethompson

You should get a notification when voicemail is left on your phone in form of a voicemail icon. Sorry it won't be by text.

To access your voicemail: Dial 443

Call to voicemail costs 1 minute from goodybag allowance or 8p from airtime credit regardless of the length of the call.

To Switch on voicemail: Dial 1616

To Switch off voicemail: Dial 1626

Nothing to worry, you can change settings in voicemail to alert you by text message instead of putting an icon on your screen.

To change to text notifications:

Call 443

Press * to get to the main menu

Press 4 for Mailbox Settings

Press 1 for Notification options

Press 1 to enable text notification

Thanks. Have set it up now.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately it doesn’t. The calls which go through to voice mail have never been logged in this phone. Weird I know, but fact.
