Questions and answers
THE PHONE RINGS I ANSWER BUT THE DOES NOT CONNECT IT GOES TO VOICE MAIL
The VTech VS 113 phone may ring but not connect when answered, going to voicemail instead, if the built-in answering system is set to answer after more rings than your voicemail service. In this case, voicemail picks up the call before the phone's answering system can. To fix this, set the phone's answering system to answer at least two rings earlier than voicemail.
This answer is automatically generated
ThE PHONE RINGS I ANSWER AND NO ONE IS THERE,THE CALL GOES TO VOICE MAIL
The VTech VS 113 phone may ring with no one on the line and go to voicemail because the paired cell phone has its own voicemail service. If the answering system is turned on, it answers calls and records messages on the home line. However, if the cell phone's voicemail is active, callers may be directed there instead, even if the call rings on the VTech phone.
