PHONE LEAVES MESSAGE THAT VOICE MAIL IS FULL INSTEAD OF ANSWERING THE CALL AND RECORDING IT, NEED FIX ASAP

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
April 12, 2025

To fix the issue with the AT&T DL72119 phone not recording calls and showing that voicemail is full:

1. Make sure the answering system is turned on.
2. Delete old messages to free up memory. When the memory is full, the system will not record new messages.
3. If you have voicemail service from your phone provider, change the number of rings so the answering system picks up before voicemail.
4. If a fax machine is connected to the same line, try disconnecting it to see if that solves the problem.

These steps should help the system resume recording messages.

To disable the voicemail (mailbox) feature and enable the answering machine on the AT&T DL72119:

1. Contact your telephone service provider to deactivate the voicemail service.
2. Make sure the answering system on the telephone is turned on.

This setup ensures that the built-in answering system handles messages instead of the voicemail service.

Why does my phone not ring and goes to automatic messages

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
May 14, 2025

The AT&T DL72119 phone may not ring and go to automatic messages for several reasons:

1. Ringer muted: The ringer may be temporarily muted during an incoming call.
2. Smart call blocker: The Smart call blocker may be screening or blocking the call. If the call is screened, it may be sent to voicemail or announced without ringing.
3. Memory full: If the answering system memory is full, it may not accept new messages but still answers calls automatically.
4. Answering system settings: The answering system might be set to answer calls automatically after a set number of rings.
5. Voicemail service: If voicemail from a service provider is active and set to fewer rings, it may intercept the call before the phone rings.

These settings or conditions can cause the phone to bypass ringing and go directly to automatic messages.
