Cannot delete a voicemail indicator

My iPhone 14 shows a voicemail even though my carrier says I have no voicemails and there is no way to delete it on my phone.

How about:

Leave yourself a VM.

Then retrieve and delete the VM?

Keeping mobile phones and carrier VM servers sync’d was a problem 30 years ago.

And it occasionally STILL is today. 🤫

Have you done a Forced Restart (different than a simple restart) --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support (CA)

A long shot, but have you tried just restarting your iPhone?
