On an Android phone, open your phone app and tap and hold the 1 key. You may be prompted to enter a PIN or passcode to listen to your messages. You can also access your voicemail on Android phones by swiping down from the top of the screen and tapping on a New Voicemail notification. This will prompt your phone to dial the number for your voicemail inbox. With any kind of cell phone, you can check your voicemail by dialing your own phone number, then hitting either * (asterisk) or # (pound), depending on your carrier, and entering your voicemail password. If you use a landline, there’s usually a number you can dial to listen to your voicemail messages. For instance, Comcast, Xfinity, and cable phones allow you to access your voicemail by dialing *99, while AT&T phones use *98. If you have phone service with Vonage, dial *123, followed by the PIN you set for your voicemail. Some modern landline phones have a voicemail button that will automatically dial your mailbox for you. Most phone service providers let you check your voicemail online as well as over the phone. For example, the Xfinity, Verizon, and Cox Mobile websites will all allow you to listen to your messages when you log in and navigate to your online voice mailbox. If you use AT&T, download the Voicemail Viewer app to your smartphone and access your messages that way. For ways to check your messages online with Xfinity, Verizon, or AT&T, read on!
