Voicemail on leave options

Before proceeding please read this page and the Voicemail Guidelines document, taking particular note of the discussion of personal greetings. At any time during later sessions with Voicemail, keying # will provide a repeat of options available to you.

It is recommended, when going on leave, that you record an appropriate personal greeting in your voicemail box to advise your callers that you will be unavailable. You also have the option to leave instructions in your personal greeting to press "0" to be transferred to another party (with their approval).

If you experience difficulties establishing the service, please submit a request through the Servicedesk or call ext 50556

Note: The message retention time in the system is 14 days. Messages left longer than 14 days will be lost
