Are voicemail messages stored in the sim card or the phone itself???

Question

simple question with a long story behind it. my cell isn't working(water damage), so if I put the sim card into another compatable cell phone could I recive the messages or do I need a new phone to get them?

And a small side question: is the phone number stored in the phone or in the sim card?

Answer 1

voice mail is stored in the phone system, the cell carrier.

you can cal your phone number, before it goes to voice mail, hit the pound (#), it will then ask for for your PIN. You canget you mail.

You account if is in the SIM card. Your phone number, speed dial, anything that ID's you to the cell company.
