If Unable to Make Outbound Calls:

You may receive the message that your passcode is not valid when attempting to dial outbound from your Nextiva Anywhere phone. This “passcode” is the voicemail box PIN or password for the employee. If you are inputting your employee voicemail PIN and are denied access, we will need to reset this in the Nextiva Portal.

To reset your voicemail password, Click Here.

Once you have reset your PIN, you should now be able to dial your Nextiva Anywhere phone number and when prompted for your passcode, enter the new 4-digit PIN you just created.
