Can I stop receiving voice messages??

Can I set up my Iphone to stop receiving voice messages for a time being? I don't want to block a number.

I'm not sure if you mean Voice Messages or Voice Mails, so you get them both.


Voice Messages:

You cannot block a specific message type, such as Voice Messages. The only option is to block the contact or disable iMessages. However, this will affect yourself and anyone else who sends iMessages. You also won't be able to send iMessages yourself.


Voice Mails:

If you mean Voice Mails on your phone, then you need to contact your Carrier and ask them to disable forwarding to your Voice Mail, or look on your Carrier's website, often they have guides on how to change settings for Voice Mail.
