How to enable your iPhone voicemail for Iran MCI subscribers
If you live in Iran and are MCI carrier subscriber and also you have an iPhone, you might ask yourself how to enable voicemail on your iPhone. I give you some quick steps to enable voicemail on your iPhone:
- Click on Phone icon and then Keypad and dial *5005*86*09912#
- Press call and wait.
- Now you can access your voicemail box by tapping Voicemail in Phone.
- To enable forwarding calls in various situations go to step 1 and dial these commands instead:
- Forwarding all calls to voicemail: *21*09912#
- Forwarding calls when your phone is busy: *67*09912#
- Forwarding calls when no reply from you: *61*09912#
- Forwarding calls when your phone is unreachable: *62*09912#
Please note that voicemail service should have been already activated on your account. It’s not activated by default when you purchase your SIM Card.

Thanks for the wonderful post.
I have a question here: What’s "*5005*86*09912#" for?
Is it for activation or something?

That code is to connect "Voicemail" button in Phone section to MCI Voicemail service. In fact before this, when you tap on Voicemail you see a message telling you that Voicemail is not available but after dialing that code, if you tap on Voicemail it automatically dials 09912 and connects to your Voicemail box so that you can hear your recorded messages.
