How to manage and listen to your voicemail
Getting Started
If voicemail is enabled for an extension or hunt group, callers can leave messages for you.
You can choose to pick these voicemails up in a number of ways.
Basic Configuration
From your VOIP handset
- To listen to any voicemail messages for your extension, dial *1
- Some handsets alert you with an audible and visual notification that voicemail is waiting (for example, an intermittent dial tone, or an envelope may appear on the screen).
- From any handset connected to Gradwell you can dial 185 and enter your mailbox number followed by your PIN to login.
From a traditional phone network or your mobile phone
- Dial 0870 861 6661 or 01225 800 899
- Enter your mailbox number and the PIN , this will then log into your mailbox and you can manage your voicemails as if you were using your VOIP handset.
From the Control Panel
- Voicemails are available by clicking on the Voicemail menu on the left hand side of the screen , from here you can review your voicemails.
- You can also purge your mailbox or delete individual voicemails.
Via Email
- Any recorded voicemails are forwarded to your email address with a WAV file attachment (unless you disable this option), you can then play this file on your computer.
- For this to work, you should provide a valid email address when creating the extension or huntgroup.
SMS Alerts
