5.0 out of 5 stars No more nuisance calls….whippee
I brought these phones more than 3 years ago and they are excellent quality and still going strong - in that time we have had no nuisance calls.The phones are very easy to set up, the most onerous thing you need to do is add all your contact phone numbers into the phones directory. There is a comprehensive instruction booklet provided.When I brought them I thought I would have to set something up in order to block the nuisance calls, but no that is done automatically, if the callers number in not in your contact list your phone does not ring. The unknown caller will be told ‘Callers to this number are being screened by a BT call blocking system’ they are then asked to announce their name and press #, then wait for the phone to be answered. The majority of nuisance calls ring off at this point, if the unknown caller does state their name and press #, the phone will ring and you are told it is an announced call. At this point you hear the persons voice/name, a message then gives you instructions on what number button to press dependant on whether you want to answer the call or not. This service is at no extra cost to you.I use the hands free facility a lot, really good if there are a few of you in the room wanting to listen to and speak to the caller. Also if there are a few of you in different rooms, each of you can lift up a receiver and join in the same conversation.Good volume levels.I believe you can sync your mobile phone somehow, but after 3 years I haven’t managed to get round to it.Excellent phone if you are looking to eliminate nuisance calls, a must for all older people.Highly recommended.

Had this several weeks now after moving from a Panasonic cordless. Fairly easy to set up and get going, although when you read the booklet (lucky it comes with one) you see how complicated or how many different settings there are, not always easy to navigate around them.When phone is in standby whatever button you press will only illuminate the screen. If you press '0' to dial a number, you have to press '0' again, address book, last dialed etc first press will only light the screen.Only the numbered buttons illuminate, no other button will. So if in low light or 3am in the morning, you have to turn on a light to get to the address book, option buttons, on/off etc as you won't be able to see them easily.state a talk time of about 22 hours. After 3 20 min calls battery level is down to about 3 bars, then goes up to 4. Down again as soon as make another call. have not tried to get near 22 hrs but don't think it would on experience so far.phone feels good in the hand, it is a little on the long side, but good balance. Is a sort of banana shape, so does not lay flay but will rock quite easily from side to side. Will not stand on its end as it is unbalanced for that. When placed on charger, only makes a very slight sound, but a blue light does illuminate to show a connection. This blue light will stay on, as does a red light on the ansaphone - message or not. Worth mentioning if placed next to a bed as some may not like this.Lots of options, copy phone book from mobile, but this is stored in a separate menu to the numbers you save in the phone, so have to make sure you select the right phone book for the number you want.LCD screen is grainy when compared to mobile phones - not unusual I know. the menu is scrolled up and down only, no side to side. So , scroll up/down. Select, scroll up/down etc etc All laborious these days when better alternatives out there, .Lastly, quite a few of my incoming calls are quite faint, and there is no speaker volume adjustment, except for the ringer volume. Change the ring tone from a selection of 20 or so, cannot add your own favorite ring tone.Yes, the shiny black plastic does attract finger marks, but a paper handkerchief sorts that, until the next time.Good build quality, looks smart, a little pricey, plenty of options to block unwanted / nuisance calls etc.best to read the little booklet whilst phone is having it's first charge.
5.0 out of 5 stars Will keep nuisance calls at bay.
Bought this to replace an older version. These phones have the added benefit of being able to link to your mobile phone which enables easy download of your contacts. The phone also connected to my internet hub to enable VOIP phone calls - this was a must as my telephone line provider stopped my land line access, so VOIP only. You must have the relevant adaptor in order for these to work, which you can get from your ISP. The set of three phones plus answerphone was good value for money. It’s worth noting that the base unit will only allow a maximum of 6 phones to be connected so if you need more than that you may have to look at alternatives. My old BT 8500 phones could be registered to the base but you may only be able to make and receive calls. If you need more than this you will have to buy additional handsets. These seem to retail at around £39 each so if you need an additional three handsets it might be cheaper to buy another three phone set and put the additional base unit away until you need it if the original fails? All in all a very functional phone set.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great product
I needed to replace my old landline phones as they were playing up big time. When I saw these could connect to my mobile, and as I run my own business as a mobile DJ, this suited my needs. Sound isperfect and they are so easy to use and set up.
