Reset voicemail to default greeting

I can't seem to find updated posts regarding this issue so apologies for duplicating.


I chatted to Mobile customer support yesterday regarding resetting voicemail to default greeting and they gave me the link to this discussion - having tried both options below - my phone just rings for ages then cuts off. The mobile is a MotoG7. Is there an alternative option to try please?

Re: Reset voicemail to default greeting

I'm having the same issue, I've tried the options listed in other threads but with no joy.

Re: Reset voicemail to default greeting

Matthew hasn't got back to me yet (not an issue) so hopefully at some point he will also help you. I tried all the options as well listed in older threads even the iphone ones (I haven't got an iphone!) My phone just rings and rings then cuts off without an option for the caller to leave a message.

Thanks for getting back to us @susiee

For some reason, it looks like voicemail was disabled for your number.

I've reactivated it now and it should be up and running shortly.

Can you try it again and let us know if you're still having issues?

Re: Reset voicemail to default greeting

Hi Matthew - thanks for that however .... I have just rung the number and it does the same (ie rings for ages then cuts off without any chance/indication of leaving a message. Would I input that code again? I won't do anything until I hear from you!

I've passed this onto our mobile operations team to investigate further and we should know more within 5 working days.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused by the delay.

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.

Re: Reset voicemail to default greeting

I have rung the number again and it is back to where I left it (ringing for ages - no greeting - silence - then "you can edit your message by using the hash key") So some of it is back!

The above is when I tried to set it up myself but didn't want my own voice so left it silent - I just now need the greeting message.

Would inputting one of those codes bring it back?

Last question - can I alter the amount of rings before the voicemail greeting answers (when I get it back) ?

Thanks for you help - appreciate it
