I need a bit of help with my voicemail, havent actually spoken to vodacom yet about it but thought id post here and c if i can get ne useful info.. My voicemail is set up and as far as i know is activated on my account. i can listen to my personal msg and change it etc but it just doesnt work when some1 phones me. not sure what the prob could be...ne ideas?
 
Calls are diverted to your mailbox or another number according to the settings you choose. Eg if not available divert all voice calls to mail box. Perhaps thats why no calls are going to your mail box!
 
TonyA has most probably hit the nail on the head there, the divert settings are wrong.

It's strange though because most handsets are set to divert to voicemail from the factory.

What handset is it Surv0??
 
you can try setting it up from vodacom4me.co.za

my account > services > modify services > Divert All Calls to Voicemail Calls are diverted if not answered or if cellphone is switched off.

EDIT - or try this
Q. I have a mailbox which I set up already but my calls are not going to my voicemail. How do I fix this?

A. If Callers hear the message "the subscriber you have dialled is not available, please try again later" when calling you and your phone is switched off or you do not reach the phone in time to answer, it means that your mailbox greeting is active, but you have not activated your phone to send your calls to your voicemail on : (1) No reply - when you do not answer your phone in time and (2) Not Reachable - when your phone is switched off or you are out of coverage and (3) Busy - when you are busy on another call. To activate your diverts to your voicemail : Press one or more of the following sequences : 1)For the "No Reply" divert, press **61*082131 or **61*072131 and the last 7 digits of your cellphone number followed by the hash key and the dialling button. 2) For the "Not Reachable" divert, press **62*082131 or **62*072131 and the last 7 digits of your cellphone number followed by the hash key and the dialling button. 3) For the "Busy" divert, press **67*082131 or **67*072131 and the last 7 digits of your cellphone number followed by the hash key and the dialling button. 4) For the "Unconditional" divert, press **21*082131 or **21*072131 and the last 7 digits of your cellphone number followed by the hash key and the dialling button. This means that your cellphone will not ring with incoming calls, but all calls will automatically be routed straight to your voicemail. 5) To cancel all diverts, press ##002# and the dialling button. This means that your voicemail greeting will still exist but your calls will no longer be routed to this greeting. Callers will hear the greeting "the subscriber you have dialled is not available, please try again later".
