Why doesn't my answer machine work now I have been switched to Virgin landline digital?

My landline was switched to digital.

The answer machine I had doesn't work . I tried another one and that does not work .

What answer machine is compatible ?

      Thank you Hosay299,

      We had a old phon eplus answer machine that does not work as answer machine.

      I then tried a stand alone answer machine that also dod not work .

      What happens is you ring the line and the answer machine message can be heard and you leave a message, but it does not register / record on answer machine. 
      Thank you for any advice .
