I-Phone 6 doesn't alert me to voice mails. What do I do?

It is crucial to understand that Voice Mail is a
service sometimes offered by the telephone
service provider (whom we used to call "the
phone company"). This Voice Mail is totally
different from the messages we can record &
manage with an Answering Machine System.

Turning off the Voice Mail is a function managed
by the service provider's methods & procedures
and is not specific to the phone instrument itself.

AT&T, GE, Uniden, VTech cordless phones all
include an indicator light or screen display
for alerting "Voice Mail Waiting". Usually the alert
indicator is cleared (turned off) when the user calls
the prescribed telephone number and retrieves
those stored Voice Mails, but not always.

To manually reset (turn off) the alert indicator one
usually scrolls through the phone MENUs to find
a selection labled something like "VMWI Reset?"
and choose "Yes".

Specifics vary by make and model... the model
number of your phone can be found on a small
sticker underneath the battery in the handset
(eg, CS6229).

Take this model number to www.manualslib.com
to download a free copy of the User's Manual
and learn the full details of what your phone
can (and maybe cannot) do for you.

Good luck!

Les,

If you want to delete the actual voice mails, you have to go through your phone company (using their keypad commands) since voice mail is only accessible through your phone (but the voice mail messages are stored through your phone company provider).

Info from the Uniden DECT 6.0 6035 Manual:

Using the Voice Mail Service If you subscribe to a voice mail service, you can use your phone to access your voice mailbox. The new message LED on the handset ?ashes and VM appears in the handset display whenever you have messages waiting in yourvoice mailbox. When you subscribe to the service, your voice mail provider provides you with the access number and the required voice mail signaling tone. You can use your phonebook to store the access number.

Resetting the Voice Message Waiting Indicator

When you receive a new voice mail message, the new message LED on the top of the handset ?ashes and
appears in the handset display. In the event your message alert tone gets out of sync with your phone company's voice messaging system, you can reset back to its original "no messages waiting" state. To reset, press and hold [?nd hs] on the base for ?ve seconds. A beep sounds and the message alert tone is reset.

Here is the manual:
Uniden 6035 1 Owner Manual

Go to Settings > Do not disturb, check if this is enabled... you can also notice if it is enabled if you see a moon icon to the left of the battery icon...

Hope that helps

Menu > Messages > Msg Settings > General > Message Alerts


By default, this setting is "Off" - which makes absolutely zero sense. Try setting it to "Once", "Every 2 Minutes" or "Every 15 Minutes"


Changing this setting didn't help the no text alert issue with the Samsung S380C I'm dealing with, but it might work for you.

My LG Optimus will not receive incoming calls. Whenever someone tries to call my phone it is showing missed call onlyl. I can still receive all other alerts such as sms, mms, and e mail but my voice calls are not coming through. What to do

under your menus look for alerts. you should be able to find something refering to your voicemail alert to clear it.

make sure you have set the correct voicemail number, and turned on voicemail checking

and no, the ring is preset by your service provider

Press and hold the "Mute" or "Clear" button until the handset beeps to clear the New Voice Mail allert.

Hi,

The notification will only alert once. It can't be set to alert repeatedly. Sorry...

okay you can fix this by calling and leaving a voicemail for your self then checking it. That should solve your problem.
