VMail is included.

It has to be set up very first time from your mobile phone.

Can be accessed through other phone using one of access numbers.

If youget too many spam calls it could be 'disabled' using one of 'long absence' features.

HI @toddmatheson   

 

Voicemail is included in all PM plan

 

You might want to setup your VM by calling it from your cell.  Record your greeting and setup a Passcode (highly recommanded)

  • Your choice of standard or personalized greetings
  • Space to store up to 10 messages (up to 5 mins long each) Voicemail messages will be automatically deleted after 10 days.

How To Set Up Your Voicemail Greeting:

Your voicemail is automatically ready to accept messages. Until you set up your voicemail greeting, the default system greeting will be played.To set up your voicemail greeting: 1. Hold down the “1” key on your phone keypad. This will dial your voicemail access number. 2. Follow the prompts to set up your password, and record your name and personal greeting.

To retrieve your voicemail messages from your mobile device, you can either:

  • Hold down the 1 key on your phone keypad, or
