Is there anything I can do extend my rings so that I can get to the phone on time. At the moment I think my phone only rings 3 times when the voice message comes on - doesn't give me time to hardly get off the settee and of course I don't hear the voicemail properly. I think it is another one from the surgery but worded differently Thanks for any answers - maybe 7-8 rings would help. Thanks
