Question

Voicemail keypad isn’t working

After a few issues using my voicemail abroad (namely it constantly telling me my PIN was wrong and me having to reset it everytime I got a voicemail) I'm now stuck being unable to access the voicemail inbox at all.

 

At the point it tells me to enter my pin it is as if the keypad on my phone isn't working and it doesn't acknowledge that I'm keying anything in.

 

I'm able to use keypads with other customer service numbers etc. It's only when I'm trying to log into my voicemail do I have this problem. I logged it with the online chat team who said they would pass it over to the 'technical team' but then I've heard nothing back.

 

Does anybody have any ideas?

I've previously reset it whilst in Spain but resetting it isn't the issue, I can't even enter it!

Perhaps try turning OFF the voicemail service for your iD account, and leave it turned OFF for several days or longer if possible.

It might rectify itself when you next turn ON your voicemail.

The voicemail service is actually provided by Three UK (the iD Mobile network partner).
Any technical issues would be passed to Three, but the lines of communication between iD and Three don’t seem to work well @Liam Gardner

Hey @Liam Gardner, your original post mentions issues with the tones produced by your handset’s touchscreen keypad. 

Another forum member - @Tecstar - could have a similar issue.

Are you using an iPhone @Liam Gardner

Two iD customers with a similar issues might indicate a problem with the iD voicemail service (provided by their network partner Three UK), though I’m not sure how you’d encourage iD to investigate.

However that said, I’m able to enter my voicemail PIN, from my iPhone 13 (iOS 16.7), and access my voicemails.

Ok so update. @Kash @Liam Gardner  I have just tried again and now the system is telling me if I want access the old voicemail system to press *1. All my voicemails are on the “old” system. I can now access everything fine so it seems this move to a new system has resolved my issue. I have left a test message on the new system and all works fine. Weird that no-one seems to know about the change.
