Visual Voicemail on new iPhone SE

​Hello - like many other people, I cannot get my visual voicemail to work on my new iPhone SE (coming from Android). I tried calling comcast but they were no help. I've seen other posts where "ComcastChrisL" or @XfinityChrisL has offered to help so I am posting here. Thanks in advance!​

Keep calling XM and ask for tier 2 support that can change or remove your old back-end settings from Android to iOS since they work differently and the porting process doesn’t always, if ever, do this properly, especially if you ported from Verizon.

I found this thread because I also saw the suggestion to ask for help from @XfinityChrisL  when you've hit the wall with all other support options for Mobile issues.  Chris, I'd appreciate being able to private message you as well.

@DaveO3  - is it as simple as asking the first line support people to escalate us to "Tier 2," or will they stonewall me by pretending to try to solve my problem (which they've demonstrated repeatedly that they cannot do).  Besides no visual voicemail, I have no incoming texts on one of my lines.

@user_9af5ac  - sorry to hijack your thread.  I'm beyond frustrated that Xfinity won't provide real Mobile support in this forum, and that they answer any questions offline so as to not share the knowledge with the rest of us.

@XfinityDaisy​ I am again hijacking the OP's concern, here - but did you even read what we wrote?  Both the OP and I have tried repeatedly to get help from the "awesome" mobile specialists, only to find that they can't fix [Edited: "Language"] and don't know [Edited: "Language"] (and they often tell us [Edited: "Language"] that isn't right).  For Xfinity to NOT help but keep telling us to call the same unhelpful people is pretty insulting.

I agree. Just went to Xfinity store today with mu iphone that has stopped notifying me of voicemails…no help.

Told me to call 611 to talk to a mobile tech “specialist”. After 2 hours toggling between Xfinity “awesome specialists” and Apple, no one can fix it. Now what?
