3. What if I can't access my mailbox?

“Your mailbox is not configured to allow access from this phone”.

If you hear this message you might be entering the wrong credentials.

  1. Dial *97
  2. Enter your extension number (VM box number) followed by #.
  3. Enter your PIN followed by #.

4. How do I personalise my voicemail?

See Personalise Voicemail

5. How do I transfer calls quickly straight to voicemail?

During the call, hit “Transfer” on your Desk Phone and dial **01 instead of 01. Press “Transfer” again to let the call go.

If you do not dial **, it appears that you are trying to transfer to extension 01.

Important: If you are on MS Teams and trying to transfer calls directly to voicemail, the ** option does not work. Instead, you must create a call flow for each user and point it to their voicemail box.
