Tried to check voice mail yesterday and got a message saying " can not be completed as the called party is unavailable" Same thing today.  This is from a basic Verizon Kyocera flip phone. Has been working fine up to this point.

I contacted Verizon by phone and was able to resolve the problem.

Tried calling *86 right now and call went thru fine to the prompt: "Please enter your password, then press pound".  What were you dialing?

I'm not using a basic phone though, but a moto z4.

What if you dial your own number?  I get the same prompt to enter my password.

I can click on voicemail in my contacts, dial *86 or dial my own phone # and get the same message.

Do you still have a 3G device? These are being phased out as we can no longer support the network they operate from. If not please send us a PM/DM to review your account.

It's important that you are able to access your Voicemail. We will be sending you a Private Note, so we can take a look at our line details further.
