Yes. Look at the buttons "Answer on/off", "Erase", and the ones for moving to the next or previous message.

I've never used the answering machine. There is a little light on the answering machine that probably blinks for a voice message.

Ours did, but the photo of this one is different--I don't think this one does. It should say "answering system" or something like that, and you should be able to see the extra buttons that operate the answer portion. Also, the price on this one ($29.99) suggests it's just a sound-amplifying phone, not an answering system. Hope that helps.

No, it doesn't. We hooked it up with an AT&T; answering machine and the combination works fine.

Yes it does. I placed a power strip down to accommodate its adapter. It is a nice phone/answering machine combo. IMHO, a good value.

I'm sorry, I don't know if that's an option. I chose this phone cuz I already have a comcast answering service. Just fyi, I would not buy this phone again. It's fair, no better.

Sorry, but I don't use the answering system it offers, but a voicemail my phone company provides. I can of course check that from any handset. Not sure about the built in answering system and its accessibility from handsets.

Nope just a simple push button phone. You can hook an external answering machine to it.

NO - However it has an answering machine feature BUT DO NOT BUY THAT PIECE OF JUNK - I have nothing but problems with the phone and its wireless second unit. Unit does NOT pick up properly when a call comes in - extension unit does not work - although its only about 3 month old I am just throwing it in the garbage. IT"S A WASTE OF MONEY Karl L.

It has an answering machine. The subscription is for special ringtones, etc.

you have the option of using the answer machine or not. I do not as I get my messages through my phone service.

If you mean does it work like an answering machine, I don't think so.(Disclaimer: I haven't used it in a long while: Google Hangouts / Google Voice and an OBI100 + regular wireless handset made this obsolete.)

No, it doesn't have a built in answering machine. You would need to access your voicemail through your phone carrier/provider. If you have voicemail, an envelope icon will show up on the display screen. Hope that makes sense.

Yes, it's got quite a good answering machine. Surprisingly, considering all the hype about volume controls and equalizer, the telephone sound quality is not that great. In fact it's less than adequate.

Yes there is, next to the speaker button is an Answer button for line one and line two. push them and follow prompts to put a message on. also your telephone service provider may have an answering service available.
