how do i turn voicemail off permanently ?

Call them and ask them to turn it off.

You might be interested in http://www.hullomail.com/ - it works (free).

not sure why i would be interested in HulloMail as the point is that I dont want to use voicemail at all and dont want to be charged for using voicemail so want it switched off

most networks you can dial a number and switch it off that way without having to phone customer services

Well change the divert in call settings for "Busy" setting etc.
De-activate the divert.
How you do that depends on particular model of phone but most are straight forward Call Settings-> Manager Diverts.

same as above but with t-mobile you need to first get them to deactivate a feature on your account called "default call forward"

according to google search you ring 150 and they can do it from there

you wont see this on your bills or on myt-mobile as its a feature on their systems rather than your account.
once its deactivated you can turn vm on or off via the phone

I got T Mobile to turn off my voicemail, however I still get a voicemail message about twice a week and the phone never rings before the message, can any one help.
