Voice message/Mailbox

43

 

Most service providers offer you an external answering service. In this mailbox, a caller may leave a voice message for you

if your phone is switched off or not ready to receive,

if you do not want to answer,

if you are making a phone call (and if Call waiting is not active, p. 14).

If the voice mail service is not part of your service provider's user pack- age, you will need to register and the settings must be made manually. The following description may vary slightly depending on the service provider.
