Is there an answering machine built into this phone?

Not for this model. The company does make one with an answering machine. Clarity D714DECT 6.0 Amplified/Low Vision Cordless Phone with Answering Machine

No, there is not. Call waiting is not a service offered on this phone either? I purchased it for my mother who resides in a nursing home, so neither service was needed. My mother is severely arthritic and the handset makes it easy for her to grasp and the large buttons allow her to place calls. Hope this helped.

This telephone does not have an answering system. I too use voicemail--Optimum. It does have a call history function which a have never bothered to look at.

Most fax machines do have answering capabilities, but not this one. I returned mine because the toner cartridge clip was defective and instead got a Brother Intellifax-2840 for the same price. It works great and has a built in answering machine.

There is no answering machine on this phone.We were seeking a phone without one .The people using it already had a small simple to use answering machine near the entrance of the house ,that they already use with the portable phones.The portable phones have little buttons that are hard to see when they dial. This one they keep at the other end of the house.If you have an answering machine you could add a jack splitter to add one before this .I'm sure Radio Shack, Best Buy, Walmart or Staples carries these and an employee could help you if you need help. If you need an answering machine and a phone I would choose a different phone that includes an answering machine all in one.It would be simpler and about the same price.

No it does not have voice mail or any answering machine features. Not bad phone considering what is available now a days. It feels light and a bit cheap but it works and I have no problem hearing others or them hearing me which is the point. I would recommend or purchase again.

You can connect any stand alone answering machine in line with this phone just as in any other land line phone.It does not contain an answering machine within the phone.

Not sure if I am understanding your question, but it does not have an answering machine. We have an answering machine on the same line that does "answer" calls with an opportunity for someone to leave a message, but this has nothing to do with the Polycom phone. You'll need an answering machine.

No, mine just has a button to answer and hang up calls. Works very well however.

It does have an answering component. You only have to enter a number to be stored on one hand set.

Yes. My mom has an answering machine that still works. I beg to differ with one of the answers. In fact, you CAN answer incoming calls with the button.

Yes is has a separate answering function for each line. We are still not happy with the overall phone system.
