This is a Verizon issue... Verizon tried to send you a visual voice mail and something bad happened. This happens if your email isn't set up yet or if you used the same SIM in 2 different devices -- meaning you swapped it from an Android to an iPhone. And how do I know this? I spent over a week working with Apple & Verizon, who kept pointing fingers at each other. Finally, an IT guy I know had the same issue and he worked with Verizon technical support to figure this out. The solution is to contact Verizon to make sure that they have the right phone IMEI linked to your voice mail -- good luck with that, I've been trying for 3 months off & on with no success...
