iPhone Visual Voicemail

Unfortunately visual voicemail is one of the few features not to work on unlocked iphones operating on unsupported phone networks. This leaves a voicemail button that doesn’t work, and begs to be used. The best solution is to programme this button so that it dials your voicemail mailbox (121 on vodafone), when pressed.

All you need to do is dial the following into your iPhone and hit ‘call’ (as if you were going to call the number):

*5005*86*121#

Now any time that you press the voicemail button on your iPhone it will automatically dial your voicemail and you can pickup your messages!
