Question
Why did I receive a voicemail when Voicemail is disabled on my account?
Answer
If you disabled voicemail on your account but received a voicemail ticket, this is usually an indicator that an end user who called your Talk number encountered an error.
Rather than having your end user experience a dropped call and having to call back, sending them to the back of the call queue, the call is routed to voicemail.

Hi Zendesk - We received a voicemail in our queue today, but do not have Talk set-up nor enabled. We do not wish to receive calls/voicemail at this time. Any ideas?

Hi Casey,
I've turned your question into a ticket since this will have some account specific info in my response.
For anyone else who is curious this usually happens as new trials are given a US number for testing, with $1 trial credit, but you need to complete the onboarding to see the number you have. So while you are in a trial, you usually have an active number on the account, and sometimes robo dialers end up calling the number.
