It means you have new voice mail waiting.

Calling 123 is not punishment. You'd be surprised how quick you'll get this done.

You could press hash, after a few moments of listening to the voice spiel.  Then you can select the old fashioned way.  Or you could just go into a Telecom Store and ask them to fix it for you.  Then, when your PIN is reset, you can go into the voicemail settings and turn optional pin ON.  See, when it's ON, you don't need the pin, when it's OFF, you do!
