This phone system has two features.

Answerphone system which records messages to the unit.
and
Voice Mail System which is an extended (often paid) service from your telephone provider.

Sometimes a glitch at the Telcom will remove your Voice Mail. You will need to phone their customer service number and ask why they stopped the service you previously enjoyed? They will be able to put it back in place.

Dial your own phone number, usually that brings you to your voicemail, and it should bring you to your voicemail options if that is correct. If this dooesn't work you should just contact the service provider and ask them.

You need to know the Voicemail access code... I generally set this up as 77, but other installers will set it with a different number. This will be the same number that others in your office dials to reach Voicemail when they have a message.

Your mailbox will also need to be created in the Voicemail system. When you call into it, it should recognize you and prompt you for a passcode. The Mitel Embedded Voicemail system default passcode is 1111. You will be prompted to set up the mailbox and change the passcode.

If this doesn't help, contact your site administrator or vendor.

Call customer service something odd is happening you don't need to re-set up voicemail moving your SIM from one phone to another. If the phone is one not from your carrier it might not be programmed for your carrier's number when you press and hold 1 to dial voicemail

Have you set up the voicemail before?

OK, from your set;
-> dial FEATURE 9 8 1 (this is the code to get you to the voicemail)
-> then your passcode, if you never set up the voicemail, the temporary password is 0 0 0 0 (four - zero's).
-> if this is a new installed voicemail, the telephone system will tell you al that you need to initiate the voicemail box.

Changing the voicemail message would entirely depend on your provider - how they set it up for you and how you can setup your own message. They must have a specific number you can dial to set your voicemail message. This setting is not available on your phone; rather voicemail messages on the voicemail server of your provider. So, the best way out would be contact the provider. Cheers
