Are you using this with a regular land line in a home office? If that is the case, I believe you need to configure the phone to dial your "outside" voicemail number along with the corresponding digits specific to your voice mailbox (access #, password, pin #, etc.) That is the way I have my phone configured. As far as I know, this button does not have any functionality until you program it and they've labeled this button as "voicemail" so you could have a dedicated and labeled button for this function.

You have to program the separate voice mail number into your phone from the menu. After it is programmed and you have messages waiting (light will flash on phone when there are messages waiting), just press the voice mail button to listen to messages. The voice mail button keeps you from having to dial a separate voice mail number each time you want to check your messages.

This phone does not have its own voice mail. You use it with voice mail from a telephone system (PBX) or with voice mail from you telephone carrier (AT&T;, Verizon, etc).

Go to your settings and click phone mode... You're going to put it on advanced mode. It comes as just a basic phone with basic setting. Took me a while to figure that out too! Hope that could help.

With every carrier I have ever used you call your own cell and when the it answers with their standard greeting you press *. After that you follow prompts in the menu to set up your voice mail passcode. Then when you call your voice mail each time, you use that passcode hear, erase, or archive calls or to change your outgoing message. If you did not get a paper manual-go to lg.com to find and download it. Consumer cellular also has video on their website under support for many of the functions of this phone as they used to feature this model.

Talk to a Tracfone customer representative. Depending on the model of your phone, you might not need a password to access your voicemail.

No. I can open the phone, enter my pin, and have never had it go to voicemail.

Set handset on the base....it should do it by itself..but I think I just hit menu until I saw registering on the screen. Hope this helps.

Hi J.R. I do not own this phone. But I am about to buy one (or two) and have read the whole manual already, and I know a lot about Skype, and I think I can answer your questions: 1 - In order to have voicemail on your non-Skype line, you have to subscribe to voicemail with your landline phone company. The device does not do voicemail. But if you do subscribe to voicemail with your landline phone company, then the device will show if you have voicemail waiting for you. 2 - Yes, you can retrieve voicemail from your landline voicemail account. 3 - The only way for a non-Skype landline to call your "Skype number" is for you to have a SkypeIn phone number. You pay Skype to have a SkypeIn phone number. If a caller in your Caller List (already entered into your Caller List) calls you, then yes, you get caller ID and you can see who is calling. But if a stranger calls you who is not in your Skype caller list, you will not see caller ID. I hope this helped you. I am pretty sure my answers are 100% correct.

Had the same problem. Tried all the usual solutions with no luck. It was well past warranty time, so I just bit the bullet and bought an individual replacement phone. Probably not what you wanted to hear.

I don't know.. I had to get a different phone since the #3 key wouldn't work with my voicemail at work. It worked fine than after about 6 months it refused to work with voicemail, but I could dial and use the 3 key without a problem. Weird.

I use the "voice dial" with my Speakerphone and it works just fine. Check your phone for the "voice dial" feature. The Speakerphone will continue to receive calls. If you do not have "voice dial" you will need your phone to place your calls.

This worked for me: 1) Hold and press "1." The phone will ask you if you want to set the voice mail number. 2) Indicate that you do. 3) Enter "Voice Mail" for the name and then your cell phone number for the voice mail number. After I did that, it took me into my voice mail and I was able to set it and retrieve messages. I hope this works for you. Good luck.

Hello thanks for this question ! I'm waiting for this phone I need help ! Or what can I do. ???

You have to set up your voice mail first by calling (908) 305-9253. Save this # to your phone, like I did, to retrieve your messages and make vcml changes too. Good luck. The phone is a little cheap, but the features are nice, which include a standard voice recorder, sd micro slot, Internet (mine doesn't work that great), calendar/appt schedule and more.

Good Friggin! Grief! I search for an hours to find a solution to this problem and Space Ace solved it. I cannot believe these dumb !!!@@@# at Philips don't have this anywhere online. Hopefully if I put: Problem: Philips VOIP8411B Handset won't Re-Register in this reply it will guide others to this solution. Press and hold page button on base station and then press register on handset. 3 Cheers Space Ace...3 Cheers.

Sorry, I just saw this message. Everything seems to work fine, EXCEPT, there is a clicking noise that is constant while you are talking and extremely annoying. However, I do not know if it is the phone I also bought or the Basic Talk. Hope this helps.

Daisy, I'm sorry that I don't know the answer to your question. I connected directly to my phone equipped with voice mail. --Gayle
