Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  TechWrite: in cellcom and all mobile's they use it too... Most people in Israel say "תא קולי"
3 hrs

disagree  Lingopro: It really depends on the type of voicemail desertfox is looking for. תא קולי and דואר קולי are not exactly the same thing.
3 hrs

neutral  Ron Armon: It's not wrong, but usually תא קולי refers to a personal voicemail BOX .The service as a whole is mostly called דואר קולי. See פלאפון, who uses only דואר קולי / תא דואר קולי and Microsoft (same). It's true that cellcom uses "תא קולי" for the service too.

  -> הודעה קולית... Listen to your תא קולי and you'll hear "יש לך הודעה קולית חדשה"...

agree  Iris Bat-Or: That's the common use
