China Mobile Voicemail Service


China Mobile can activate voicemail with English prompts setting for you if you need voicemail service. 

When you access a mailbox number by your own cell phone in China, there are English voice prompts and instructions on the voicemail menu after setting up. It charges at local call rates. However, when callers called you left a message or did not leave a message, the system instantly will send you a message in English to notify you someone called with caller phone number and time displayed, even you did not access the mailbox number. So you may call the person back. 

There is no English prompts by accessing landlines.
