This guide covers everything you need to know about three voicemail number on the EE network, including setup steps, troubleshooting tips and useful codes.
Setting up on Three
Most call and voicemail features on EE are configured directly through your phone settings or by dialling short codes. Visit the EE APN hub for the latest codes and instructions specific to your plan.
Useful Three codes
UK mobile networks use standard GSM codes for call forwarding and voicemail:
Divert all calls: Dial **21*[number]# and press call.
Divert when busy: Dial **67*[number]# and press call.
Divert when no answer: Dial **61*[number]# and press call.
Cancel all diversions: Dial ##002# and press call.
Check voicemail: Hold down the 1 key or dial your voicemail number.

Fastest way to apply new APN settings
After saving, turn aeroplane mode ON for 10 seconds, then turn it OFF. This forces an immediate network re-registration — quicker than a full restart and equally effective.
Troubleshooting
If calls are not working correctly on EE, toggle aeroplane mode on and off, restart your phone, and check that you have adequate signal. For persistent problems, contact the EE APN hub.

What is WiFi calling?
WiFi calling lets you make and receive phone calls and texts over a WiFi connection instead of the mobile network. This is useful when you have weak or no mobile signal but have access to a WiFi network — at home, in the office or abroad. Calls made over WiFi use your existing minutes and texts allowance on your plan.

Troubleshooting WiFi calling not working
Option greyed out: Your device or plan may not support WiFi calling. Contact your network to confirm it is enabled on your account.
Calls dropping when switching between WiFi and mobile: This is normal during handover. Stay connected to WiFi or mobile to avoid dropped calls during handoff.
Poor call quality on WiFi: Move closer to your router. Check your broadband speed — WiFi calling requires at least 1Mbps upload. Try restarting your router.
