Service activation

Before you use Message Centre, you need to set up your mailbox with your personal password. If it's the first time you've used Message Centre, you'll be prompted to enter the temporary password we assigned to you when you purchased your phone or Message Centre service. If you ordered it on bell.ca, your temporary password would have been sent in an email.

1. Dial your area code + mobile phone number and press SEND if you're calling from a mobile phone.* Note: If this call is long distance,** dial 11 digits (1 + area code + mobile phone number).
2. Skip the voicemail greeting by pressing the # key. If you're calling from your mobile phone, you don't have to press the # key.
3. You'll be prompted to enter the 4-digit temporary password we assigned to you.
4. Follow the prompts to change the temporary password to a new one. It should be 4-10 digits long.
5. Follow the prompts to record your name.
6. Follow the prompts to record a personal greeting or to select the standard greeting.
7. You're done! Your Message Centre service is now activated.
