I got a new cell phone recently. As the world stood in line to pick up the latest iPhone 8, I graduated to the 6S. I pride myself on that actually.

Apple Support is the last resort. You may contact them online or make an appointment at the nearest Apple Store.
Tap “Phone” on your iPhone’s “Home” screen and tap “Voicemail” to access your voice-mail settings. Tap “Greeting” and select “Default” if you wish to use the default greeting for your voice mails. Click “Custom” if you want to create a personalized greeting, and tap “Record” to say your greeting.
