Phone-only voicemail accounts
Upon being given access to a Phone-only voicemail account, please see the following instructions on how to complete your setup.
- Once the mailbox is set up you will be provided with a 6 digit PIN that needs to be entered when prompted by the [#] key.
- Follow the prompts to record your name and then to record your personal greeting, making sure you complete each step for the system to accept it.
Note: If it has been requested that you are able to initially reset your PIN one time only, the system will tell you that your temporary PIN has expired. You will then continue to enter a new PIN of your choosing. Then follow the prompts to record your name and personal greeting.
