New Voicemail (Remove Voicemail Please)

I don't want to receive voicemail anymore. I don't want to listen to the voicemails I received. I don't want a red dot to appear in voicemail when I get on the phone. I would like to not have or at least not see the voicemail option... I've already deactivated the phone notifications, but that red ball makes me uncomfortable. Could someone please help me?

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14

Hello, Art_XXI.


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


From our understanding, you want to completely turn off voicemail for your iPhone. To turn off this feature completely, you'll need to reach out to your wireless carrier. Voicemail is handled by the carrier including turning off/on. Currently, there isn't a way to remove the voicemail icon from the phone app and to clarify, the red dot with no numbers indicates Visual Voicemail is available but isn't provisioned for your account. Your carrier would have additional details on the account settings.


Best regards.
