Getting voicemail notifications is important, MANDIREISS. I have had this happen to me in the past with a new device and this is what you need to do. Please dial *86 and follow the prompts to turn your voice mail notifications on. Once this step is complete you will receive all your voicemails and voicemail notifications.
As for blocking calls, we do have a free service where you can block calls. Here is how to access it. http://vz.to/2dQXAmZ This will completely block the call from your phone. It is a bit more powerful than your device’s blocking capabilities.

Not quite sure which prompts to choose for notifications when I dial *86. I went through all the options, and nothing about notifications...
The blocking through the website is very handy, and has stopped a lot of unnecessary business.
MANDIRESS We understand how important it is for you to manage your voice mail settings. The settings vary based on location. After you dial *86 and send, select option number 4 for changing Personal Options. Depending on your location, most states will have an option for Notification settings. Tell us what happens after you select option #4 and listen to all of the options.

Press 2 for Administrative Options
Press 3 to Record a Greeting
Press 4 for Pager Notifications
Press * to Exit
I tried pressing 4, and it said no pager listed to account, which is correct...just hit it because it was the only one that said anything about notifications.
It might be under the Administrative options too.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
Hi MANDIREISS. I had the same issue and found a solution for it. What you will need to do is to go into SETTINGS then into APPS or APPLICATIONS, then look for your voicemail app. Click on the app to get to the setting options. Now click "force stop" then right after click "delete data". Once you did that restart your phone. Once it's back up start your voicemail app and follow the directions. That fixed it for me. I tried *86 before but that didn't work. Hope that helps you.
Good luck
