Kiwi VoIP Voicemail puts you in control of setting up and accessing your messages from anywhere. Our standard voicemail features include personal recordings for BUSY and UNAVAILABLE, save, delete, forward and the ability to deliver messages via email and use SMS for notifications (charges apply).

You can manage your voicemail service in the Kiwi VoIP web portal.

Setting Up your Voicemail Greeting

Option One – Via the Kiwi VoIP web portal

Select the number you wish to record the voicemail greeting for from the Cloud PBX landing page and then select Voicemail Services from the Inbound Features Menu

You have the option to record your Voicemail Unavailable or Voicemail Busy messages.

Click the relevant link and then enter the number you want Kiwi VoIP to call you on. Answer that phone when it rings and then follow the instructions to record and save your greeting.

Option Two – Via a phone once connected to your mailbox

Press ‘0′ in the main menu to access your voicemail settings then you can select:

‘1′ – To setup your unavailable message

‘2′ – To setup your busy message

‘3′ – To setup your name

‘4′ – To setup a temporary greeting (i.e. on vacation for a while)

‘5′ – To change your PIN number (instead of using the Kiwi VoIP Live site)

Press ‘#’ after recording and follow the prompts to listen to the recording and save it if you wish.

Listening to your voicemail

From your Kiwi VoIP Phone – Simply dial *55 from your Kiwi VoIP phone to access your personal mailbox

Voicemail Star Access – Dial your own Kiwi VoIP number from any phone and wait for it to go to voicemail. When you start to hear the voicemail greeting press ‘*’ and you will be prompted for your voicemail PIN code (must already be setup) – you will then be able to access your mailbox messages as normal. You can also setup calling numbers as trusted callers to avoid having to enter a PIN number

Via the Kiwi VoIP Web Portal – You can check your new voicemails by simply logging into Kiwi VoIP and clicking on the messages tab.

Via email – You have the option in the web portal to set up email addresses to forward your voicemail onto.
