How do you setup and use Inmarsat BGAN Satellite Phone Voice Mail?

When connected to the BGAN network, dial 57# or +870772001899. You will then be required to follow the recorded message. You will be asked to select a PIN number (4 characters or more), then you will be asked to leave your name. Finally you will be asked to set-up a greeting message.

When you receive a voicemail the network will send an SMS message to the terminal to inform you. You can then dial the short code 57# to pick up your voice mail message.
