mine's been set up like this for ages but i can't remember how i did it, so before i phone up 789 for a friend (he's on virgin) is there a manual way of doing this, as at present his phone only rings for 10 seconds.
Fr. Stack: While you were out, I got the keys to your car. And drove it into a big wall. And if you don't like it, tough. I've had my fun, and that's all that matters.

    Cancel all diverts will prevent you from getting a voicemail, god I know the answer to this question, as there is posts in the past few days that have asked for it. Trust me for having 1 pint to many, I will search for it now.

    Right I've got it, diall the number into yor phone

    **61*07973100123**30#

    ignore the bit that says 07973100123, hold 1 on your phone and whatever number that says then replace it to the 07973100123 and that should change it to 30 seconds.

    If that doesnt work then virgin do the same as orange and dont xtend the ringtone just to get more money from voicemail, but I have a mate that works for virgin, he's only broadband tech but will get him to sort the phone out as they will get the answer from the mobile department.
