    Hi there, im just wondering if anyone can help me with this annoying problem that i have.....
    When someone leaves a voicemail for me - my phone rings 5 separate calls to me (171 flashing on screen), and even if i end the call after the first ring, it calls me back 4 times more.... its extremely annoying, ive checked my settings and cant seem to figure it out....can anyone shed any light as to what i can do to deactivate this? (Its a Samsung Galaxy)
    Thanks

    It's not a handset issue.

    I assume you're on Vodafone?

    You can choose from two different notification methods, voice call or text message. When abroad there are charges for receiving a voice call notification. However, using text message notification is still free. Change how your notified:
    From your mobile

    Dial 171
    Press 5 for mailbox preferences
    Press 1 for message notification
    Select the desired notification method

    Go through their help/support website for that info. Not hard to find. :rolleyes:

    Dial 172, then press 3 to select your Personal Options

    Press 1 to turn your voicemail notification on or off
    Press 2 to change your security options including your voicemail PIN number.
    Press 4 to change the way you are notified about your voicemail
