I'm sure this only applies if you have the "No Answerphone" product
added (completely disabling the answerphone), which is different to the
"No Auto-Divert" or "Auto-Divert" product (whichever way around it is)
that only affects the divert setting in the customers HLR.

No autodivert only applies to contract. If you have PAYG there is no
option but to get OCS to switch off (and on again).

The default setting is for Orange to control the answerphone divert. To
return control to the user the product "no autodivert" is placed onto
the subscribers account. This then passes an instruction through to the
network management system which in turn updates the HLR etc.

The OP never said it was temporary - just that it was to be turned off
- so my answer, I believe, is correct :-) with the exception of the
small typo!

God, I'm a pedant.

You said to ask Orange to "switch it off" when in fact, the OP needs to
ask them to turn It on (where It is "no auto divert to vm")

If the contract holder requests them to turn it off, they will
completey disable VM.

With the "no auto divert to vm" enabled, the user will be able to
control vm with the phone's divert options.
