VoIP - Pre-announcement: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 15:52, 7 November 2024

A number can be set to always to go voicemail where the caller hears a message before any phones are rung.

In the VoIP settings, if there is a fail number set and no also ring then the fail number is used immediately after the announcement. You will need another AA VoIP number for this to work.

Accessing This Feature

Access is via the Control Pages as follows:

Log in to the Control Pages with your xxx@a login
Click on the Number you want to configure
Click the 'Incoming Tab'
Set Voicemail to 'Always'
Ignore the format option, as a recording will not be sent to you
Ensure not to set an email address in the Email To box
Leave the also-ring boxes empty
Set a 'Fail' Number to the number you wish to call once the message has been played
Click save

To record the announcement, see: VoIP - Voicemail
