Voicemail and unified in-basket

Unity Voice Messaging is available for all office telephones on the university campus. Unified voicemail (as compared to a basic voicemail service) greatly increases the ease with which people can move recorded voice messages around. Users can choose the unified in-basket option to deliver their voice messages directly to their Microsoft Exchange email inbox, allowing users to manage all messages from a single location using their email application.

There are several ways to check your voicemail messages:

From your own phone

  1. Dial 7000 or press the Messages button (if your phone has one).
  2. Enter your password followed by the pound sign (#).

From off campus or a cellular phone

  1. Dial 250-721-7000.
  2. Press the star sign (*).
  3. Enter your mailbox number, followed by the pound sign (#). Most mailboxes are the same as your 4-digit local.
  4. Enter your password, followed by the pound sign (#).

From another UVic local

  1. Dial 7000 or press the Messages button (if your phone has one).
  2. Press the star sign (*).
  3. Enter your mailbox number, followed by the pound sign (#).
  4. Enter your password, followed by the pound sign (#).

See Voicemail menu commands for details on how to navigate your mailbox.
