• Call 01534882882 >> option 1>> option 2 Monday – Saturday 8.30am – 5pm

Once the service has been activated by JT you will receive an email confirmation.

To manage and use your JT voicemail service, please call the correct access number below:
• Bailiwick of Jersey customers must dial +441534 555555
• Bailiwick of Guernsey customers must dial +441481 818818

Please setup the call forwarding rules on your handset. Calls may be forward to voicemail in four different scenarios:
1. Forward all inbound calls
2. Forward calls on no reply/no answer
3. Forward calls when busy, i.e. you’re engaged in another call
4. Forward calls when unreachable, e.g. your phone is turned off

Please dial the voicemail access number and follow the prompts to enable a notification option of your preference. There are 3 options available:
1. Receive an SMS notification
2. Receive an email alert
3. Receive an email alert that contains a copy of the recording

How can I manage my voicemail call forwarding rules via my handset?

The easiest way to manage call forwarding is by using shortcodes.

How to setup call forwarding to the voicemail service:
1. Dial **FUNCTION_CODE*TARGET_NUMBER#

Where FUNCTION_CODE is either:
61 – to forward calls on no reply
62 – to forward calls when you are unreachable, e.g. when your phone is turned off
67 – to forward calls when busy, i.e. you’re engaged in another call
21 – to forward ALL calls

And TARGET_NUMBER is either:
00441534555555 when in Jersey
00441481818818 when in Guernsey

So as an example, if you were a Guernsey customer and you wanted to forward your calls to the voicemail service when busy you would dial: **67*00441481818818#

To check the status of a call forwarding rule:
Dial *#FUNCTION_CODE#

To cancel a call forwarding rule
Dial ##FUNCTION_CODE#
You can cancel all rules at once by dialing: #002#

What is the voicemail access number?

If you’re calling within the Channel Islands, you can also dial 171. Please note this shortcode will not work when roaming.
Bailiwick of Jersey customers must dial +441534 555555
Bailiwick of Guernsey customers must dial +441481 818818

How do I know if someone has left a voicemail message for me?

You can manage the way in which you’re notified of a new voicemail by dialing the voicemail access number.
By default, the service is set up to notify you of a new voicemail message via SMS.

There are 3 methods of voicemail notification that are available.

1. Receive an SMS notification (default)
2. Receive an email alert
3. Receive an email alert that contains a copy of the recording

a combination of these methods may also be used, e.g. you may receive an SMS notification AND an email alert.


Will my mobile data be throttled?
Regardless of how much data you have in your data plan, and whether it's 3G or 4G, JT won't throttle your network speeds.

When you choose a monthly data plan of 1GB – 100GB, your speed will be the fastest possible from the first megabyte at the beginning of your billing period all the way until your last megabyte or the end of your bill period.

If you reach approx. 80% of your monthly mobile data plan limit, we’ll send you an SMS or email notification giving you the chance to top up your data plan up until the date of your next bill. This way if you think you’re going to go over your data this month you can add more data, without having to commit to a higher data plan every month. If you exceed your monthly mobile data plan limit, you can continue using mobile data up to the value of £50 before we turn your data access off. You can manage your mobile service and view your used/remaining balance whenever it suits you via your free JT My Account App.

** You can use your local mobile DATA allowance as you do at home in these destinations only if you have a JT One plan and have a mobile data bolt-on for your JT One mobile.

I’m having problems making/receiving calls.
Is your phone set to ‘Do Not Disturb’ mode?

Android: To turn this setting off on an Android device swipe down from the top of the screen and tap your current option: Alarms only, Priority only, or Total silence. Press the volume down button and tap Turn off now.

iPhone: To turn this setting off on an iOS device swipe up from the bottom of the screen and tap the crescent moon shaped icon.

Your surroundings can really affect the quality of reception, especially if you’re a long way from a mobile mast. Buildings close by, cars or electrical equipment can block a signal – we’d suggest moving from where you are if it’s possible. If you’re near lots of trees, inside a large building or in a valley the signal may not be as reliable – we’d suggest finding an open space.

If you’re still having issues making or receiving calls please answer these questions, submit this Form and our team will get in touch with you to fix the issue.
I'm having problems connecting to the network
There are some changes and steps that you can take to try and fix this issue before contacting our team.

1. Have you reset the device? Turn your device off, leave for 30 seconds and turn it on again. Or refer to your user guide to find out how to do a 'soft reset'.

2. Have you manually searched for the JT network? Please go to Settings > Carrier > Deselect Automatic if it’s already set > Select JT > Try loading a page or making a phone call.

3. Have you tried your SIM card in another device?

If you’ve tried all of these steps and you still can’t connect to the JT network, please fill out this Form to help one of the team fix this as quickly as possible.

Our team may get in touch with you because the nature of the issue needs you to be in the property to carry out some tests on the device which will help the team get to the root of the issue.

How do I activate my JT SIM?
There are a couple of things to check before you get in touch with us to activate your new SIM card.
  • Make sure the SIM fits your handset before we activate it
  • Check your handset isn’t locked to another network provider. The good news is that any handset that you buy from JT won’t be locked so you can use any SIM card in it.
If you get your SIM card from our JT shop one of the team will activate it in store for you unless you ask for it to be kept inactivated. If you do receive a blank SIM (in the post or as part of a gift for example) you can visit the store where one of the team will be happy to activate it for you, or you can contact us so we can activate it remotely. Remember, if you’d like a blank SIM activating you’ll need to have this information to hand:
  • The JT Account number that the SIM card is associated with.
  • Valid photo ID if you’re visiting the store.
What’s an eSIM?
An eSIM works just like a traditional SIM card. The only difference is, it’s built into your phone, so you won’t have to remove or replace it, and you’ll still be able to change phone numbers or network providers.
I need my PUK code
Your PUK code can be found printed on the card that your SIM card came in. If you misplace the card, you can find your PUK code in your JT online account anytime you need it.

Click HERE to log-in > Enter your credentials the same as the one you use for your JT My Account App > Select ‘Get PUK code’.
How do I check my Pay As You Go balance?
  • When on island please dial 233 or *#133# and press the call button.
  • When you’re not connected to the JT network, please dial *#133# and press the call button.
  • Our FREE JT My Top Up app helps you manage your Pay As You Go mobile service when it suits you. Download your free app here.
How do I test my mobile data speed?
Download the Ookla speed test App from the iOS App Store or the Speedtest.net App by Ookla for Android handsets. To help make sure the speed test displays accurate results, please read each of the below points:
  • Ensure your phone is on the JT network and you have 4G/LTE enabled in your settings.
  • Open the Speedtest app and check that the server is set to JT / Jersey Telecom Limited.
  • Press the GO button, then wait for the speedtest to complete.
My phone has been stolen/lost
Don’t worry, we’ll do all we can to have you back up and running as quickly as possible.

You can call us 24/7 on 882882 to report your lost or stolen mobile.

We’ll suspend your SIM card to make sure that no one can use it to make calls, send texts or access data.

You can then decide whether you’d like a replacement SIM card (your number will stay the same) or would like to wait until your phone is found/returned to you.

We recommend letting the police know that your mobile has been lost/stolen. This will give you a reference number for any insurance claim.

I am having trouble connecting my SIM card using a Mobile Wi-Fi Router / Hotspot device?
In order to connect a mobile Wi-Fi router or hotspot device using your 4G enabled SIM, the SIM must have the PIN code removed. If a PIN code is applied, simply insert the SIM card into a regular handset and then follow the manufacturers instructions to disable to PIN. Then remove the SIM and insert back into your mobile Wi-Fi router device.
PAC numbers; what they are and what are they used for?
A PAC code is a 'Porting Authorisation Code' – a nine-digit code that allows you to move your number to another UK mobile network. Mobile numbers cannot be ported from or to the UK, so we are unable to provide PAC codes.

If you want to keep your number, we can change your mobile over to a Pay As You Go service however you would be paying roaming rates whilst in the UK. Remembering that you must top up your phone every 210 days to keep the service active.
Un-received text messages; who do I contact if I don’t receive a text message?
Unfortunately, this will need to be reported and investigated from thesender’s side, as the problem is likely to relate with the sender’s mobile operator instead, which we have no control over.

Unless the sender has been reported as fraudulent, we do not block text messages from being received by our network and therefore recommend that the sender liaises with their mobile operator for you liaise with your bank for investigation.
