Reactivating your old Voicemail yourself using a GSM Code
If these steps don’t work you will need to contact your carrier.
- Go to your phone app that you would use to make a call on your iPhone
- Make sure the key pad is selected and enter the GSM code for your mobile carrier. GSM codes are free calls.
- Press the green “send” button
- Check the words on the screen - you should see the words “success”
- Tap DISMISS
If you see the words error – just check that you entered the code
exactly as stated including any * or # characters. If this fails again, the
best option is to phone your carrier.
