Line one red light constant - voicemail locked up

We always programme the voicemail to 555. If you have something different change what is below, which is our 'one sheet' user guide from www.dschiltern.co.uk

All Types of Phones

1. Your mailbox number will be the same as your extension number.

2. Default password is 1 2 3 4

3. Voicemail group number is 555 (unless programmed differently)

Before callers can leave voicemail messages you must activate your mailbox and record your greeting message. We would suggest something along the lines of

"You are through to the voicemail of . . . . I am sorry I am unable to take your call at the moment but please leave a message after the tone and I shall get back to you "

Hello,

Dial your extension. Wait for the greeting to say that you are at your voice mailbox. This is also the "Quick Voice Mail Tutorial Set Up."

Follow the instructions provided in the tutorial. You will be asked to enter your name (or company name), password and greeting. Write down the password and keep it in a safe place.
Record other greetings, if needed. After the tutorial, you have an option to add different messages for different situations. Press "311" to change your general greeting. Use "312" to record a message for when the line is busy. Dial "315" to record a temporary greeting for when you are away for an extended period of time, such as vacation.

In addition, visit this link below and read the information on page 9. I think it will be of help.

Good luck.

The auto attendant greeting, or the general mailbox greeting?

really depends on which voicemail you have. I will assume you have the toshiba voicemail. call voicemail, when it answers press * should ask for your user ID enter 999 and use 999997 as sec code or 999. press 8 then 6 and enter time

Pressing and holding your #1 button should take you to your voicemail directly. You can also call your voicemail from a land line phone and when you hear your greeting you can interupt it by pressing # (or could be *, I always get confused) and then it will propt you to enter in your passcode, which should be the last 4 digits of your number unless it's been changed. If the #1 button does not work, call your service provider and ask them to assist with programming your "Retrival number" Have them test and make sure that you can access the voicemail before they end the call to ensure they have fixed the problem. Hope this helped.

I bought and Uniden Dect 6.0 phone and the other day I had a voicemail msg but I can't retreive it how can I do that the book doesn't show how to set up for voicemail

Yes you can have the 2 lines answered by a particular mailbox instead of the AA greeting.
Would need to know the model of the voicemail system that is installed to see if there are more than 1 AA menus.

Depending on the type of voicemail you have, you''ll have to login to the admin mailbox. That's done by pressing your voicemail key or intercom 777. If you have a Partnermail VS the admin mailbox is 99 with the default password of 1234.If you mave a Partner Messaging System the admin mailbox is 0 with a default password of 1234 or 123456. Once your into the admin mailbox press 9 for admin programming. 3 for greetings, 1 for the auto attendant #.press 1 for the day menu or press 2 for night menu and 6 to modify the menu. press *# to skip selector codes.Press 1 to record your new greeting 1 to stop recording. Press *# to approve or 21 to re-record hang up when finished.

ANY phone system will have this problem.

If 5 people call in, the first 4 will be answered, but the 5th will get busy, as there are no lines available into your phones voicemail system.

IF, you have voicemail through the phone company, you can get their voicemail feature for extra.

THEN, if 5 people call in, the first 4 go to the phones, and the fifth gets the voicemail greeting.

It would be dependant on the line provider how many calls their voicemail would handle at one time. SO if 500 people call in, 4 get through, and MAYBE 5 go to voicemail, the rest get busy.....
