I cannot enter new Voicemail password

I received the message “Voicemail Unavailable Try again later. OK” immediately I tried to set a new voicemail password on an iPhone XR. I recently transferred everything except Voicemail from an iPhone 6 to an iPhone XR. I tried setting a new voicemail password to see if that was the reason I was not getting any voicemail notifications. I entered 7877991. I tried several other 7 character passwords and they gave me the same error message. Why can’t I set a new voicemail password?

If you forget your voicemail password on your iPhone

If you can't listen to voicemail on your iPhone because you forgot your voicemail password, only your wireless carrier can help.


Apple doesn't have access to your voicemail password and can't reset it for you.



Contact your wireless carrier

Only your wireless carrier can access and manage the voicemail account for your phone number. On your carrier's customer-service page, look for steps about how to reset your password online or over the phone.

For help finding your wireless carrier's service page, use the Apple carrier-support article or an online search engine.
