Possible T-Mobile voicemail workaround

Hello all

Being frustrated that T-Mobile insist on charging me for voicemail (why isn't it just deducted from my inclusive minutes?) I am looking for a way to dial into my voicemail on t-mobile (from my t-mobile mobile) for free.

I wondered if I dialed my own mobile number from my mobile and used the override codes and pin if I would be able to listen to my voicemails as part of my inclusive minutes?

I would test this, but voicemail is currently disabled.

Has anyone ever tried this? Does it work? Would the call to my own number definitely come out of my inclusive minutes (I am on a sim-only plan) without any further charges?

If anyone knows, please do share.

Thanks
