Voicemail Notification
There are a couple of different ways your phone alerts you to a new voicemail message.
●
By sounding the assigned ringer type.
●
By displaying
within the Notifications area of the Status bar when a single new
unheard voicemail message is received.
Note:
When you are off network, you may not receive notification of new voicemail messages. It
is recommended that you periodically check your voicemail by dialing 1 + area code + your
wireless phone number. When your voicemail answers, touch
and enter your password.
Note:
Your phone accepts messages even when it is turned off. However, your phone notifies
you of new messages only when it is turned on and you are in a network service area.
