5 | Voicemail
Voicemail is included with your
Fiber
Digital Voice service and allows callers to
leave messages when your line is busy or you do not answer. You can retrieve
messages by phone, online from your
Frontier
Digital Voice Web Portal or from
your
Fiber
TV. Not all features can be managed using all access methods. See each
feature for available options. You can also add up to eight individual mailbox
extensions for family members.
Note:
If you prefer not to have an active Voicemail service, for example, because you
have a home answering machine, please call customer service .
5.1 Set Up Your Voicemail
Callers can leave you messages even before your mailbox has been set up; however,
you will not be able to listen to your messages or use the other features in your
mailbox until you complete the set up process.
