Explore voicemail options

Learn about your voicemail options. Smartphone plans include Visual Voicemail and basic phones can get Basic or Enhanced Voicemail.

Compare wireless voicemail options

The type of voicemail option available to you depends on which phone and service you have. For example, wireless and AT&T PREPAID (formerly GoPhone®) data plans for compatible smartphones include Visual Voicemail at no additional charge. Basic Voicemail comes with your plan if you have a wireless or AT&T PREPAID phone without a data plan or Wireless Home Phone.

Want to upgrade from Basic Voicemail? Add Enhanced Voicemail for $1.99 per month to get more voicemail message capacity and storage time. Learn how to add options to your plan.

Heads up: Enhanced Voicemail isn’t available for AT&T PREPAID accounts.
