Whenever you reset your iPhone or insert sim card with different phone number in your device. Your voice mail stops working, and you may also see small red color icon on front screen.
In-such case, you will have to follow the normal voice mail activation process to activate the service. Make sure that your monthly plan or pay as you go plan offers voice mail service.
If your voice mail is not working, the most important step that you need to take is to check the call forwarding activation status.
Click on settings, then phone settings, and then check the call forwarding status. The call forwarding feature should be turned on, and the screen should also show the voice mail box number for your cellular network.
If you find that call forwarding is off, simply switch that on, and enter your mobile network's voice mail number in the column that says "forward to".
To be on safer side, call your cellular network and inform them about the same.
If you realize that you are in good network coverage area, and call forwarding is set as well, but you are still not able to receiving voice mail notifications, you should make sure that you have enabled basic voice mail alerts.
Check in sounds settings and make sure that voice mail notification alert is on.

So, if your iPhone's voice mail is not working in-spite of right settings, you should make sure that the phone has installed carrier updates and is working on latest version of iOS.
If nothing works, just call your carrier's technical support team for assistance.

There are many ways to do this, you can use iPhone's Visual Voice Mail feature, install apps, or use Google voice service to record your voice mails and convert them to text.

Some operators also allow their users to actually read some part of their voice mail under this feature. But as mentioned, only few operators offer this service with iPhone in the US.
First step is to set-up Google voice number for your account, and activate Google voice for your phone. Then, go to conditional call forwarding settings on your iPhone and enter your Google voice number, so that whenever you are not available, all the calls would be forwarded to Google voice account. Google will convert voice messages into text and make them available on your phone.
