Need help with retrieving voicemail

[Mustangfreak]

The gf and I got new iPhones last Friday and she swapped from a droid doing so. The issue is, she had voicemails from her mother who passed away and when she swapped over, she lost them. Is there a way to get them back? She still has her old phone.

That sucks.

If it were the same carrier they'll still be there, but if she swapped the number to a new carrier, they're probably gone.

In either case I'd call the carrier and see what they say.


On second thought, if it's the same carrier, do you have the ability to call from another phone, and input a pin to retrieve your voicemail? If so, I'd have her do that from your phone to see if they are still there.

Perhaps the iPhone just needs to be set up to be able to do that automatically, is she getting new voicemails?

Thanks for the comments. We just activated the old phone and were able to access the vm server, issue resolved!!
