Hi,

Depending on the carrier it can be a little bit different. Basically you need to dial the voicemail number from your cell, most commonly 123. After this an automated machine will guide you through the setup.

Hope this helps,

I have voicemail through my telephone company. Recently my SAMSUNG SGH-D980 phone system has been answering the calls for voicemail, instead of going to my phone company voicemail. I am being left messages that I cannot retrieve! I would like to "turn off" the voicemail function of my phone system. I'm not sure why the phone changed from working "properly" to now picking up voicemail calls. Thank you for any help you can give me!

Hi
you cannot retrieve messages off the voicemail system I am afraid. If this is down to malicious calls and police are involved speak to O2 as they may have a way to supply evidence direct to police?
Regarding turning off voicemail here are the codes you need, dial 1750 to activate voicemail, 1760 to deactivate voicemail, 901 is used to call in and listen to voicemail and additional options i.e. greeting, pin etc.
WARNING! By turning off voicemail you will ERASE any messages in your voicemail as it resets each time deactivated! So only do this is messages are no longer required!
Hope that helps?
