What is the automated voice played on phones called? I plan to use this when a character calls another character, but I'm having trouble figuring this out. The voice that says things like "The number you have called is not available" or "please leave a message after the tone."

I think it's "automated voice recording" when it's standard and not dependent on the caller's entry (like the examples you gave), and "interactive voice response" when it reacts to a choice made by the caller.

If I'm referring to it in the prose or it appears as a character name I just say AUTOMATED VOICE. The addition of MALE or FEMALE could be specified too, up to you. Although, I have only ever heard a female tell you about voicemail/messaging, etc

ANNOYING VOICE. lol. Sorry, it's an annoyance of mine. I hear it every month when I call my cable company to pay the bill. I heard it yesterday after a freak thunderstorm knocked my internet into spastic territory of it not working properly.
