i need to get a new phone cos mine is driving me bonkers... keeps crackling, clicking, going onto loudspeaker (u-oh!!) and then cuts out... and i havent even been speaking for THAT long!!
i want a 2 handset cordless with answerphone (cos i would have to pay for voicemail with my service).
BUT... i want the phone to ring for longer than the about 5 rings i get now, i want the ansafone toauto come onIF i forget to turn it on, i want to be able to click the ansafone on if i dont want to take the call, and i want to be able to screen calls and take if i want to. lol.... not too much for a girl to ask for is it??
so.... any suggestions please to save me trolling through a ton of web sites? 😀
RE: New Landline Phone
I use a BT studio 1500 digital with built in answerphone (you can get this for 2 handsets), the only thing is the rings, I think all modern phones do this? there are menus on this phone that you may be able to programme a longer ring from, anyway I hope this helps.
RE: New Landline Phone
I also agree with Lioninlondon, BT studio 1500 are really cheap & good.
RE: New Landline Phone
:)thanks for the help but... doh! as chance would have it, during the afternoon, i was yakking on the phone when it did its thing and i noticed a BT man outside. i am with telewest (ooooo virgin media now [&:]) and accused this man of messing with my line!
nope, he says... nowt to do with me, lady! so i call telewest, who cant do a line check anymore... damn! not like the old days... and ... well i am precising this story cos its awful boring otherwise ;), they sends a man who fixes the fault!
so... i dont need a new phone afterall, although it doesnt stop me hating the one i have! 😀
RE: New Landline Phone
I understand that DECT phones are better. I am no expert on these though, and was simply told to buy a DECT phone.
