Voicemail Notification Won't Go Away

[Scypheroth]

i had to restore my watch to factory settings then i just disabled voicemail notifications on my watch to fix the issue

same issue here. Seems to be a Gear S specific problem but I can't figure out what setting is causing. Quick question, I was thinking that the problem arose because the SIM in my Gear S is data only and I turned on Call Forwarding to see if it would work anyway and when I turned it off something got "stuck", so my question is, do you have a SIM in your Gear S that gives you full service including calling from the Gear S number?

NO need to reset watch just press and hold that page till an icon comes up to dismiss the page I did that

I tried the long press. Didn't work. Went over to one of the "home screen" shortcuts to do the long press and get the minus symbols but when I scroll toward the notification screen there is nothing there but the vm still remains.
I did a factory reset and restore and the notification came up as soon as the restore was done. Going to reset without a restore.

This right here solved the issue

Go to your notifications by swiping right, then click on the vm notification, once inside, press and hold anywhere on screen then click the minus button. And it will be gone.

I got a notification the other day while the watch was remotely connected and dad burn if it wasn't someone had left a voicemail on my watch number.

This one does not work for me been trying to get rid of the notification for 3mo since my service was shut off, I've tried to swipe it away but it only tries to call, I've reset my watch and phone to factory and it still won't go away

So you've long pressed the notification screen until it gets small and a red minus sign appears in upper right of shrunken screen? Have you tried this while phone and watch are not tethered? I had your scenario once and it was a voicemail left on my watch's number (not the phone) and the only way to rid it was the above described method. It might come back when you get out of tether range again but since the number is deactivated from your account you'll have to contact your carrier and have them remove the message on their end. At that point the above method should make it dismiss and not come back. I've read another thread here where Sprint was having an issue with a customer and they were getting notifications to a non active number as well .
