Voice Mail Alert Bug

For the past several years with Sprint PCS service my wife
and I have had several different brands of CDMA phones from
Samsung, Sanyo and LG.
ALL of them exhibited basically the same voice mail
condition or fault.
When the FIRST voice mail comes in, both the audible and
flashing lamp alert is OK.
If this voice mail had remained UNanswered, the NEXT
incoming voice mail WOULD NOT give the audible announcement,
and the flashing lamp triggered by the first voice mail
would be extinguished.
Seems to me that is a bug-problem with SPCS Voicemail
service and NOT the various CDMA cell phones.
OR, is this a bug in the Qualcom engineering specs for SPCS
and CDMA cell phones?
Thanks in advance for any comments. ---Juan

If you didn't check the first one why would the phone think you would
check the next one? You would have to get the first one first. Or at
least check voice mail for the first one to get the second one.
Doesn't seem like a bug to me.

This holds true with just about ANY phone Juan. Even my (old to some of
you guys) Nokia phone that has almost NONE of the bells and whistles
that phones have today.
