@musicollector You cannot. However, you can disallow callers to leave voicemail.

@musicollector you can't .. but there is workaround;

to "disable" voicemail, on your dial pad dial: *004*8080000000#
This will cause all calls to either ring forever or get fast busy at the point they normally would have been diverted to the voicemail system.

To reset it back to defaults, dial ##004#

@musicollector

We cannot turn off voicemail. But you can setup your voicemail not letting caller to leave your a message.

Follows the following flowchart to create extended absence greeting and don't let caller to leave message:

[3]Greetings --> [4]Extended Absence --> [2]Record

[3]Greetings --> [4]Extended Absence --> [5]Message not allowed after greeting

[3]Greetings --> [4]Extended Absence --> [4]Turn On
