Voicemail doesn't work

Julie,

Sounds like 34 is the # of calls that came in on the caller ID (CID) lis

To open the Caller ID list, press the little phone handset symbol (it looks like a big "C" then ID next to it) on the right side of the 4-way button (it toggles 4 ways, so press to the right side to get the Caller ID list).

The phone will show the number of new calls (or Caller ID records) and the total number of stored CID records. Use the "up" arrow and "down" arrow to scroll through the list.

It looks like you have the Uniden DECT 6.0 6035, so I attached the manual in case it helps.

You can set up the answering machine if the voicemail was deactivated by Lifeline (page 38 in manual shows how to set up answering machine). If 4 rings is not enough, you can change the # of rings (page 40) and to use the answering machine/voicemail, see page 42 in manual.


Uniden 6035 1 Owner Manual

The CS6114-11 isn't an answering machine. It will ring until you answer, an answering machine or voicemail system picks up, or the caller hangs up.

To change the ring count on your answering machine, consult its documentation. If you require further assistance, please add a comment to this question and identify the answering machine or voicemail system.

The TRU9466 isn't an answering machine. The number of rings is controlled by whatever answering machine or voicemail system you have on your phone line. Please refer to the documentation for the answering machine or voicemail system to change the ring count.

If you need further assistance, please reply to this post and specify the answering machine or voicemail system.

For all of you that want a real answer here ya go. This isn't something you can change on your phone this has to be changed with your service provider. If you are with AT&T, like I am, then this is the solution for you (link of where I found it below as well). 1. enter *#61*11# and press send/talk on your phone.
2. write down the number your calls are currently forwarded to (usually +1401#######, but not always). this is your voicemail deposit number.
3. decide how long you want the phone to ring in 5 second intervals. the maximum time is 30 seconds. i'd recommend 25 seconds or less, as using 30 may cause you to be billed for a minute of airtime each time someone is forwarded to voicemail.
4. now enter **61*[number from step 2]*11*[number from step 3, use 2 digits]# and press send/talk.

example
voicemail deposit number is +14015551212
you want it to ring for 20 seconds
you would enter **61*+14015551212*11*20# and press send/talk.

if you have trouble with the above procedure, you can always call customer care at 800-331-0500 to change it.
OR QUESTION: How can I adjust the number of times my wireless phone will ring before the caller goes to voicemail? ANSWER: Contact Customer Care at 1-800-331-0500 or dial 611 from your wireless phone to change the amount of time your phone will ring before going to voice mail. The adjustments made by Customer Care are based on the traditional ring heard by the caller, not the unique Ringtone you hear from your phone. I just wanted to add that increasing the ring length to 30 seconds will not cause you to be charged a minute should the caller go to voicemail. This was confirmed by an AT&T technician.

That unit is defective.

Sounds like your service provider(Verizon) has your phone line setup to forward to voicemail on no answer after 2 rings. Call your service provider's customer service number and request that the number of rings for forward no answer be increased to at least 5, then your answer machine can receive and answer your calls after 4 rings but if your line is busy callers can leave a message with your Verizon voicemail service. If you don't want Verizon voicemail to answer any of your calls, you could have them disable the voicemail service. When you call the service provider have a recent bill ready because they may request your account number before they will make any changes.

try transferring the calls from ur mobile to the voicemail when u r not available....
in call settings u might have an option of forwarding the incoming call after so many particular number of rings... forward the calls to ur voicemail numbers using this and then u ll have the numbers in ur recieved calls list.
this might work but is only a temporary solution

call 911 cuz thats an emergency

Transfer to voice mailbox: Feature 986, dial ext. number of phone and release. Call is transferred to mailbox without ringing the phone.

You please change the setting from answer voicemail to ring mode if you have any dificaltey refer your phone user manual book and reset the option
