Help Annoying Incoming Phone Call Announcement

When I receive a call, I get, in FULL OUTDOOR VOICE............

"VERIZON WIRELESS"

And then the ringer starts. I've searched all over in settings and can't seem to find how to turn this ridiculous setting off. Had VZW with my iPhone and didn't get that awful announcement with incoming calls.

Anybody know how to turn this off?
 
Do as instructed above then hit MORE. Turn off message/call voice notifications.

OK, I have no option that says 'More'. I'm gonna try and attach four screenshots, one with 'Message/call voice notifications' turned on, and it's subsequent screen, and one with it turned off, and it's subsequent screen. Another thing the annoying announcement does is say "VERIZON WIRELESS" whenever it comes in and out of range.

"From your Verizon phone, go to Settings, Sounds & Notification, Sound Effects, then uncheck "Sound When Roaming." Although you're not roaming, this sound will play every time.
