Not receiving voicemails immediately

I am not receiving all my voicemails immediately. They appear hours after the call has been received. Do I need to have mobile data on to see them? I have basic visual voicemail on a Samsung 6.

JONOAK73, I know the importance of getting messages quickly. I'd be more than happy to help troubleshoot what is happening. We do want to have Mobile Data turned on, so you can receive your voicemails. If it is currently off, please switch it the data back on. You can do that with these steps included in the link here,

The short answer to your question is YES. The cellular data connection is needed for the voicemail application to retrieve and verify any voicemail waiting on the server.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
