How can i disable my voicemail?
I would like to disable my voicemail so that i can no longer recieve voicemails how can i do this
I have seen a few people ask this. I never figured out why people would want to.
You have to call tech support to remove the option. You cannot do it on your own.
Do not use apps. No. The best way to do this is to just call T-Mobile and they will deactivate your voicemail altogether. Do not have the representative suspend your voicemail, have them transfer you to the tech department and they will turn off voicemail altogether.
The reason for wanting to disable voicemail altogether is because scammers have figured out a way to bypass calling you and go straight to your voicemail and leave you an inundated amount of messages that are spam. Student loan forgiveness or refinance your home or refinance your car all of these things of which myself I do not have .
So don't go junking up your phones with additional apps and thinking that you can find some cool work around acting as if you're some kind of rocket scientist. Just call T-Mobile and have them deactivate it.
Most companies can text or email. Friends and family can text or email. There is seriously no reason today in 2023 for a consumer to have voicemail. Companies yes. Consumer, no.
