Help voicemail

Hey guys.
I just spent an hour on the phone with sprint because I'm having a Voicemail problem, and then they said they 'don't know' what it is.

Anyway, I am getting no visual Voicemail, and no Voicemail notifications.. but, I get a text message saying I have a new 'voice sms' from the number of the call I just missed.

Couldn't find anything on Google about this.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

My wife had exactly the same problem. You will likely end up doing a factory reset, and it will likely work correctly after that. WEIRD FREAKIN PROBLEM! annoyed me that they didn't know what it was. tech support ended up recommended a hard reset, kinna sounded like they had their fingers crossed on the other end too.

Yeah probably have to do a hard reset but... Are you using Google Voice? Is it possible you set that up? Also go into Menu then Settings then Call then Voicemail service and make sure that you choose My Carrier and then check Voicemail settings. Only thing in there is your Number. Make sure that is correct. other than that it sounds like a Factory Reset kind of Problem.
