Voicemail | Listen to your voicemail messages (HFC)

This article contains step on how you can listen to your voicemail if you are on an HFC connection.

Before you begin

To call back a caller

You can call back someone who has left you a message by pressing the # key during their message. You'll be asked to confirm the number they called from or prompted to enter a new number to call. You must enter a number to call if they called you from a blocked or private number.

To retrieve a deleted message

If you delete a message by mistake, don't hang up. Simply listen to your messages again. Messages you deleted will be played last. Once you hang up, deleted messages cannot be retrieved.

Date and time of messages

You can listen to the date and time of all the messages left for you without listening to the full message.
