Thanks.
Do u need procedure to retrieve phone msgs or code? or BOTH?
 U want to retrieve existing to retrieve existing msgs or delete msgs? Voice or Sms?
How to check voicemail is totally dependent on your phone service provider.For example, I use Vonage and I dial *123 to get into my mailbox. Your best bet is to check the website of your phone service provider or call them - there should be a contact # on your bill.................
However,
push and hold down 1 untill it says call voicemail it should go straight there
Thnx.
