My #1 phone light keeps blinking and the screen says I have a new voice mail...except I don't have a voice mail. I have tried disconnecting the phone and even took the batteries out of the handset, but when I reconnected and put the batteries in, it still kept on blinding, Any help would be appreciated.

SOURCE: New Voice Mail

Called GE. Here's what's happening (at least with my phone). I use VONAGE as a carrier. VONAGE's package includes voicemail. I have my VONAGE voicemail account set up to take any call that comes in if the answering machine on my GE phone does not pick up -- for instance if I'm on the phone and I do not "flash" over to the incoming call, that caller will eventually be sent to my VONAGE voicemail where they can leave a message. (Otherwise I would either take the call, or, if not already in use, the GE phone/answering system would simpy take the message.) This GE phone is commucating with my VONAGE account and letting me know that I have a mesage in my VONAGE account voicemail. All I have to do is either go online and delete the messages (after listening to them of course) and refresh the page. Once the messsages are deleted, the carrier lets my phone know the messages are gone and the NEW VOICE MAIL prompt on the handset disappears. I suppose I can do it by listening to the messages by calling in and deleting through the touch pad on the phone as well.

SOURCE: displays new voice mail and VMWI constantly blinking when no voice mail

I have the opposite problem - no voicemail waiting light or display when there is voicemail

SOURCE: voice mail message waiting light does not light

Press down the "find handset" button until the paging beep stops (about 5 seconds) and this will reset the indicator lights on the handsets.

Press the # sign on your phone.
Press the green button your phone.
Use the Skype program to choose the VM you wish to listen too.

SOURCE: after listening to new voice mail and selecting 3 to delete those voice mails, the "new voice mail" msg does not disappear from the screen

not sure how or if we fixed problem, but we added a test voice msg from our cell and then tried to delete the new voice mail to see if "new voice mail" msg disappeared from the screen. At first it did not but then later it went away on its own.
