Question about a working phone that can no longer be reached.

Good Morning,

I have a normal IP phone 2528 or (xxx) xxx-2528 that starting mid yesterday cannot be reached internally or externally. The phone works when I pick it up and I can make calls from it. However when you call this phone either way it goes straight to a voicemail box stating that the box has not been setup yet. I don’t even think that is the VM box for this extension because they do have a Name Greeting set for this box I listened to it. I noticed the 2528 Prime line key on this phone does one quick flash but does not ring when called however, the caller always ends up in VM immediately.

I checked call forwarding and it was setup and active for internal/external Busy/No Answer scenarios to go to VM. I tried deactivating all call forwarding but the 2528 button still acts the same and the caller ends up in VM somehow. I checked and made sure this phone wasn’t in a hunt group and it is not. I even swapped out the phone then changed the network port and I still get the same results (I then swapped them back). Eventually I tried activating internal/external call forwarding to their other phone and this actually worked as a temporary fix.

Obviously I’m missing something but I just can’t figure out what could cause this if it’s not the phone, call forwarding, in a group, or front ended with voicemail. Has anyone else seen before? We have Openscape 4000 V7R2 with redundant Echo processors.

Thank you have a good Wednesday all!

I just tried canceling Do Not Disturb on this phone using ##5 just in case it was activated however that did not work.
 
Ok with no forwarding on this extension whatsoever when I call internally ext to ext I get voicemail. When I add internal call forwarding all the call follows the forwarding I added correctly. How are the calls ending up in voicemail with no forwarding setup?
 
Also add a code into WABE for FWDIGNOR so as you can override any forwardings.
 
Does it have normal or broken dial tone when you go off hook?

Could try deleting the key system config and try again. Failing that, delete it and re-add it.
