I have my own personal answering machine and want to use that rather than ringing 1571 and have some wench in my ear saying You have new messages.
Thanks for any help offered.

Hi, I have had a similar problem. Virgin media disabled my voicemail as they said it conflicted with my answerphone, but the answerphone still will not work with virgin phoneline. I adjusted number of rings settings 3, 5, 7 all to no avail. As I also have another phone [philips] of exactly the same type and a working BT line in addition to the virgin line, I have swapped them over to check and the answerphone works fine on BT. On virgin the caller gets a continuous silence instead of the answerphone message. So seems that virgin equipment is not recognising the answerphone's 'answer'. So have requested VM to reinstigate voicemail and I will have to dispense with my answerphone built into my Philips phone. Virgin Customer service are adamant that it is my equipment at fault, but if so, then why does it work on BT just fine?
