I have the same phone and the same issue. I turned off voicemail as the "solution". This issue is not due to a limitation with the phone. The issue is with all skype phones. There is no workarounds as far as I can find. I am considering getting an ooma phone instead.

I have a Panasonic 4 line wireless system and yes, all phones ring, just as if connected directly to the phone line. I had to get a standalone answering machine as the built-in answering machine on the wireless phone would not work as the answering machine connects to a separate jack on the Telebouncer. Once set however, it has been like a blessing from the almighty! I get one ring so I can capture callerid, then it stops unless the caller presses the number. Has brought much peace to the household!

Both my base and handset receivers all say "New Voice Mail" whenever I have unchecked messages...it's says that on the actual screen of the phones and base. My issue is the caller ID...the numbers don't come up...everything else works fine.

The voicemail has to be set up through your local phone provider. These Motorola phones have a phone symbol on the phone that tells you that you have a voicemail. Your local provider should furnish the information on how to retrieve your voicemails. M. Gardner

My phone only rings when the calling party actually presses a 1 when asked by the machine. Otherwise, if the caller stays on the line, the call is routed to my answering machine. The phone never rings if the 1 is not pressed. There are some alternate settings that allow one to easily bypass the telebouncer and make the phone ring right away if that is needed. I have used that feature to accept calls from auto callers that I have asked to call my number and, when done, I reposition the telebouncer to the block telemarker position. We love this thing. Hope this helps.

You can select 2 to 7 rings or select "Toll Saver". "Toll Saver" answers at the end of the 2nd ring when messages have been recorded, or at the end of the 5th ring when there are no new messages. If you call your phone from outside to check messages, you know there are no new messages when the phone rings for the 3rd time. You can then hang up to avoid being charged for the call.

You have to program the separate voice mail number into your phone from the menu. After it is programmed and you have messages waiting (light will flash on phone when there are messages waiting), just press the voice mail button to listen to messages. The voice mail button keeps you from having to dial a separate voice mail number each time you want to check your messages.

thanks for the info, but it acts as though I am just another caller, when I get to voice mail...when do you add the pin code to get access to voicemail??? I am a newbie to Tracfone, and really like this phone...but have always had a phone, where accessing voicemail was free and easy.TIA

I no longer use this earpiece but if I recall correctly... it only announces the NUMBER calling NOT the contact name stored in your phone. As for voice call using contact name stored...No to that as well. I hope this helps.

It is usually up the the software you are using it for. It can be both in my experience with Ventrillo, teamspeak, raidcall, and skype. Generally skype is voice activated though.

I didn't use the machine's voicemail because I wanted to be able to retrieve my messages from outside the office. Most providers, Comcast, Cox, Century Link allow you to access voicemail from anywhere. However, having said all of this, yes if you don't answer an incoming call while on another line it goes to voicemail whether you use the machine or your service provider's voicemail it doesn't just ring... you can set how many times the phone rings prior to it going to voicemail.

Correct. Upon installation when someone calls your Skype number (must acquire one) it will ring both at your land phone connected to this device as well as in the computer or cell phone that is logged in with your skype account. And you can make phone calls to land lines from either your skyoe account in your pc, your cell, tablet or the phone connected to this device. I loved it.

Hi there, As I mentioned in the review I don't use it for the voicemails set up because I have magic jack which sends all the voicemails to my Email inbox where I listen to the audio clip there. It's really nice that way. So I have no idea if you can listen to the messages through the handset. Thinking back I vaguely remember listening to the messages on the handset, however I can't be sure. Feel free to search on google...or at vtech.com Or lastly...I would just call them at 1-800-595-9511Best of luck!

About remote access to VM on your panasonic, Sorry, a small correction. Please enter your 3 digit code (not *5) when the beeping stars after voice message). You have to select the 3 digit code (not 4 digit) when you set up your Voice mail. Then follow the instructions.

It,s a little unclear what you are askng but maybe this will hyelp...I use vonage. I have the panasonic VM on and if i am NOT on phone and do not pick upo, it goes to the panasonic VM. If I have it turned off, and do not pick up, it goes to my Vonage VM. If I am on the phone, regardless of whet6her it is on or off, it goes to vonage and the message is left there. And I DO gave call waiting. Call waiting gives you the opportunity to pick up if you want. If I dont, it goes to Vonage
