Setting up Visual Voicemail

Anonymous

Hello, I have a sim only contract on an iPhone 6s and can't seem to find the setting for activating visual voicemail. Anyone know how to go about this?

If on an iphone tariff and you have activated voicemail by dialing 1750 it should be on vvm by default.

 

What are your apn's for mobile data saying ?

In your myo2 account, is the data bolt on Idata?

Log into myo2 and click on bolt ons.
Then click data bolt on and it will tell you which data bolt on you have, if it is standard click on "swap data bolt on" and swap for "idata" or "data for iphone"
