This was not the case prior to 10.2 at least on my end. I always got VM notifications even on wifi. That's why I asked this question here. I was trying to see if everyone was having this issue or if it could be narrowed down to T-mobile. I would think that some kind of notifications would be pushed even if the visual voice mail wont work unless you're on cell data. I would think you would get notified to call into your voice mail box. I'm on wifi most of the time, but cell data is still turned on when I'm not.

I did not know that visual voicemail depended on cell data. Good to know.
As to why that is, I'd say call your phone company's support and see if they have a clear explanation.

Sourt of the same issue. I am with verizon Always connected to wifi. In order for me to get my voice mails pictures etc, I have to turn on my cell data. Why if I am indeed connected to wifi do I have to turn on my cell data to get voice mails etc?

Subject: pushing voice mail alerts to phone

We're both on T-mobile over here using iPhone 7's. Neither one of us get alerted to voice mail messages when they come in. Ever so often I can go to the voice mail app and hit the button to modify my greeting and it will then pull up the messages, but this doesn't work all the time. Are the rest of you experiencing this? I'm trying to figure out if it's IOS 10.2 or T-mobile? We don't even get alerted where we could call manually and get our messages that way. I updated carrier settings with no success for this issue.
