Voice mail problems

voice mail
I've always had an answering machine, so I never bothered setting up voice mail. However, somehow, voice mail got turned on. I get that rapid beep beep beep when I pick up my handset, and know that is the signal that there are messages. I tried retrieving the messages, but I'm asked for a pin, and I don't have one, since I never set up voice mail. It won't allow me to set up voice mail again - when I try, the steps for set up don't kick in, only the steps for retrieving messages, which I can't do, because I don't have the pin. My wife just called on my cell phone, because she called the home phone and got a greeting telling her to leave a message - not the usual greeting from our answering machine! I tried having a live chat with Cox support, but they just gave me links to setting up and retrieving messages. HELP!!

VM Prices & Blocked Calls
Hi- I hate that we don't have voice mail on our phone. Is there an additional price to have voice mail? My second question is: I am SUPPOSED to NOT have our phone number listed on anything as well as I have blocked it on the DNC Registry, yet I still come home daily to at least 8 missed calls... all from businesses or telemarketing. If I have to pay additionally every month for my number to be blocked, then I expect not to be getting these types of calls on a daily basis. Where did I go wrong with this ? Also, am I able to block specific numbers from calling our home?

Lost voice mail messages?
Yesterday, I received an unanswered call from a doctor's office. My call history shows that it was 25 seconds long, so it seems likely that a message was left. However, there is no voice mail message. I'm wondering whether anybody else ever hasexperienced callers who say they left a message that you did not receive.
