How do I set up the default message for my iphone 4s. I've tried *86 and it gives me a busy signal, and I tried tapping the default tab in the voicemail setting and neither on works.

If the feature is correctly on your account it should allow you to change/set the greeting by selecting 'phone' then 'voicemail' and then 'greeting'. *86 or dialing into vmail shouldn't work on iPhones as they use a visual vs dialing program. Do you receive some sort of error message when trying this?

Its already set to default but when I dial my number its a message saying the caller isnt available try again later. Its not the generic voicemail message

Gotcha, has the voicemail ever worked since you've been using this phone? That message could mean the voicemail feature is missing from your account itself (it can be added thru customer service) or there is some sort of incorrect forwarding on your line which you can check to ensure it is off by dialing *73.

Gotcha, you'll need to call them then to have them add or reset the feature on your actual account itself, and then you'll be ok.
