Reason why calls are sometimes directed to voicemail:
-The called party is not available - with the call divert set up, calls that are not answered after certain number of rings will be directed to voicemail
-part of call screening. This is to examine the importance of the call so that no time wasted in answering unwanted calls.
How can you avoid AT&T voice mail announcement and go straight to voice mail?
Yes
This is especially shown when your phone calls to the person go straight to voice mail. AlsO ask people if they blocked you and take it up with your network carrier.
if the phone is dead or off
Go to the phone and then hold 1 for 10 seconds and it will dial voice mail and you can set it up there.
How long you phone call will take to reach voice mail depends on your service provider and your phone, generally it will take 7-10 rings. If the phone is off, out of time, or out of a service zone it will usually ring once and go to voice mail.
I think it depends on the phone company. AT&T, Verizon, and I think T-Mobile for example will not ring if the phone is dead, however I have had some friends with other companies (some outside the US) that I think do ring, because they claim its dead but I still hear a ring.
Go on the cell phone and put in the "messaging" then go to options and say delete this voicemail it should do it so ya!
Put your phone into airplane mode. Some phones have a power save setting that allows them to turn off the radio that picks up signal. People will call your phone and it will go straight to voice mail like if it were off. Saves battery as well.
Press and hold the number 1 on the phone! When you got the phone there should have been a book that went to the phone, so what you got to do is open the book and look in the table of contents and find voice mail and go to that page and when you get to that page read it and that will tell you
You call his number... Then wait for his voicemail to go off and talk
yes, go to a corparate Metro store with your I.D. and they will reset you voicemail for free.
