As far as I know it is possible to access your mobile's voicemail from another phone by changing the first digit of your number and entering a PIN, say my number is 086 8123456, if I dial 086 ?123456 I should be able to access my voicemail, but I don't know what ? is and I have tried all the options but did not get through, am I missing something or is this not possible?

Thanks

For 02, if your number is 086 111 2222, dial 086 5 111 2222 to get straight to messages. When you hear your voicemail response, press # and you'll then be prompted for your PIN
 
For O2 it also works just to dial your normal number (from a different phone obviously), leave it ring until voicemail message starts then press # and you'll be prompted to enter your password followed by #.
 
also handy if you want to ring someone and not speak to them...dial 5 and you just jump straight to their voicemail and you can plead that they must have been out of coverage when you rang!
 
Thanks for the quick replies, that is exactly what I was looking for.
