From a quick google search:

If you are experiencing issues with your voicemail (call not going through when holding "1"), it is most likely related to your retrieval number being incorrect. For more information on where to find the voicemail retrieval number within your handset, I will have to refer you to your user guides here:

To know what your retrieval number is, you can click here:
