Xfinity Mobile Voicemail is broken

No audio, no notifications, no alerts, sometimes no transcriptions, and in my case, Tier 2 support has missed two ETA commitments to restore normal functionality. Horrendous reviews on the Google Play Store over the last month or so. What's going on in Xfinity-land?

You may need to do some housekeeping on your voicemail as there are some limits that may have been reached when you were not connected to the network?

First, clean out the voicemail on the network server by pressing and holding “1” and then listening to all new and saved messages and deleting them appropriately. 

Next, clean up the voicemail on your phone by fully listening to each unopened or not fully transcribed messages, etc. 

Good Luck!

Xfinity Tier 2 support has accepted responsibility for the issue. They just need to act.

I raised this issue with first-level tech support around Sep 4, who, after consulting with Tier 2 support, said the issue would be resolved on their end in 3-6 hours. It was not, So I called back, was connected with Tier 2 support, was told that there was an issue with the device identification on my account, and that the voice mail issue would be resolved on Xfinity's end within an hour. It was not. I called in a 3rd time to insure the device identification (IMEI on two phones/lines) was corrected. This was again on Sep 4 IIRC.

As of today (Sep 13), the issue remains unresolved.

I have the same problem since the Sept 1, 2023 update. Lost audio. Was able to recover transcript by turning off, then on again, then restarting phone. I've called 3 times with no resolution. Four hours of wasted time.

Hello @Bob137! Thanks for taking the time to reach out to us on Forums letting us know you're also experiencing issues with your Voicemail. Since Xfinity Mobile support on social media is currently limited, and we only have access to help with general questions about pricing, service offers, and basic troubleshooting available on xfinitymobile.com, have you attempted to reach out to that department via one of the other support methods (text or chat)? 

For the best assistance, please contact our Xfinity Mobile support center through any of the following methods:

Here's is the resolution to the Xfinity Visual Voicemail functionality issue - delete it entirely and install YouMail https://play.google.com/store/search?q=youmail&c=apps

Thanks for the recommendation. Until Xfinity software engineering corrects the problem caused by the Sept 2023 update, sounds like a good solution.
