I'm not sure if this will be horribly off topic. If so, be gentle about pointing that out but you lot are more techie than me so you may have an answer to this. Phone is Android Gingerbread. Theoretically it has no voicemail service now but, along with others (I have googled and followed what advice I could) the notification still comes up when I switch it on. I rang my provider yesterday and they deleted the voicemail message for me but it's still there today. Points to note: I cannot listen to it because I have no idea what my pin number is so I couldn't delete it for myself. I have no phone app anywhere to remove. Any ideas?
Like I say, if this is totally off topic, be kind about saying so. Ta.

Do I have this right: When you switch the phone on, you're getting a message saying that there is a voicemail message for you. You have since disabled the voicemail service, but you're still getting the message?
If so, to remove the message, you will have to do something like this: Go to Settings menu. Select Call. Click on "Clear Voice Notification." That should do it for you.
Options like this (but possibly with slightly different names) have been around for a while, so that should sort it for you (assuming that I understood the problem).

Well.... Android is Linux (for some value of is)

On My phone voice mail messages just "go away" after 30 days or so. I have a voice mail message saying "I DO NOT USE VOICE MAIL DO NOT LEAVE A MESSAGE" but I still get some. I get annoying prompts about unread voice mails for a week or two then they eventually just disappear all by themselves.
