You may need to turn off wifi and mobile data to send codes.

On most phones there is Call Divert (otherwise called Call Forwarding) option in Call Settings in Settings on the phone.

If busy-if no reply-if not reachable options.

You activate those and in the no reply option you can set the length that way.

 

This way is far better in my opinion and gives a lot more control when setting up Voicemail.

 

(Nokia 225 4G mobile phone take note!)

Codes often won't go on 4G. Make sure 3G/2G is selected as network type.

 

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

There are Call Forwarding options in Settings on the Google Messaging app, but there is no option to select a length of time the phone rings before Voicemail answers, for some reason.

 

On a basic mobile phone you just select Divert if no reply and select between 5 to 30 seconds, but for some reason this option is missing on the Google Messaging app. I wonder why? 🤔
