Voicemail
Setting Up Your Voicemail Box
Using your MOTOROLA i1, dial your ten-digit Nextel
Personal Telephone Number (PTN). For example:
7035557777. Follow the system instructions to create a
new four- to seven-digit password, record your name,
and record a greeting. When the system says, “Thank
you for using Nextel Voicemail,” your mailbox is set up.
If you are setting up your voicemail from a phone other
than your MOTOROLA i1, dial your ten-digit Nextel PTN.
When you hear the greeting, press * to access your
voicemail box. The system will prompt you to enter
your password. Enter the last seven digits of your
Nextel PTN. For example: 5557777. This is your
temporary password. Follow the system instructions to
complete your mailbox setup.
You are in the main voicemail menu when you hear the
voicemail system options.
For details on using your voicemail, follow the audio
prompts provided by the voicemail system.

Multimedia Messages (MMS)
Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) lets you send
and receive messages that may include text, pictures,
and audio recordings.
Tip: To receive voicemail messages, you must first set up your
voicemail box.
If you are bringing your phone number from another
carrier, we suggest you set up your voicemail box after
the number you brought to Nextel is active on your Nextel
phone and your temporary phone number is deactivated.
If you set up your voicemail box prior to this, all messages
and all settings (including your greeting and password)
will be lost when the number you have brought to Nextel
becomes active.
