Cordless Phone Deals & Offers

POTS = plain old telephone service https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_old_telephone_service

what does POTS stand for in this instance, please

Love the Indian scammers when I have the free time to give them a rough ride.

That's a pretty amazing price considering what I think we paid for our similar ones a few years ago. Wonder how long these landline phones will be around. I'm just debating with the family whether we actually need ours anymore.

Fyi there is no loud speaker on these if your elderly and need that function.

Hard lined phones (not ones that rely on a mains connection e.g. cordless) will always work, the exchanges provide the miniscule amount of power necessary through backup diesel gensets. If you've got a line rental anyway, and a lot of people still have an old phone in the loft they're not a bad backup.

1) That's a line rental for a thing I'll only use in that edge case - the only people to call me are marketers or the ISP. 2) Who the hell am I going to call if there's an outage? "Oh hey mum, power's out - fancy a chat about sod all?" Screw that. If there's a massive mast outage and I want to reach out and touch someone I'll go up the road or do any one of a dozen things that doesn't involve inflated line rental. Oh... also do phones these days still work if there's a power outage? Don't they affect the phone system these days because of infrastructure changes?

Brown goods.....

Im not sure if this really looks cool though. Maybe in 1988. I’m thinking of getting one of those micro phones they have in jail. They look like a wee doll’s phone and are quite cool looking. Apparently I have 2 delivery choices.... - by drone - from the back passage........

Out of stock. Expired

Cold. "Beware of fake branded SSD and other computer components on eBay etc. Always buy from authorised retailer where possible."

No answerphone - I'm out. (and you can't leave a message....)

I deal for use with a VoIP ATA.

voted hot but there cant be many people using home phones any more, with mobile contracts becoming so cheap these days, it doesn't make any sense to use the landline.

I have the previous generation of these - they are great, and have 'speakerphone' function (you can place it on the desk/in base unit) and speak without holding it!

Welcome to the Nougat muted list. Goodbye

It's a wireless communication protocol you can set up a hotspot on your mobile phone also. I'm very surprised you haven't heard of it.

I'm not surprised!

Never heard of WiFi?

indeed calling landlines is 1p per minute [few countries checked], mentioned 300 min will cost then £5 abut the same as new International plans. It looks to be more convenient for anyone on new contracts - I pay that for unlimited and usually use 1000 min most of the months.

Thank you so much for information.

Thanks buddy for your link..I ended up getting the triple for £44.99. Many thanks for your help.

try John Lewis - seems to be the same one for £35 Gigaset C620A Digital Telephone and Answer Machine, Twin DECT Product code: 83140364

You can get the BT 8610 for £39.99, which has the same handset but a slightly different physical design of the base. Now the Gigaset are back up to £80 it makes them a bargain.

Same here, blocks all foreign numbers and with held numbers (BT) Large colour 1.8" TFT They always say large when it is not.

Price dropped to 13.99

Bought these which have finally given up the ghost. My wishlist is that the phone must have a speakerphone. tPer the reviews on Amazon these don't, despite the blurb saying they do. Heat, but not for me.

£14.69 at Amazon.

Fish for details then cancel your order

Tried to order, but claimed out of Stock - EXPIRED

Is there free delivery

Heat added, good deal.

I just want someone to call me, even if it's an iPhone deal from India...

You need an "Add nuisance calls" feature. (y)

Taken from the ops description at top of page, last bullet point!!! "Brilliant HSP sound quality, even when talking hands-free" (y)

Do these have speaker phone on these?

sadly I only have around two calls a year to the landline, so wouldn't really get a chance to use 3 phones

It was a while ago now tbf

This was not£5 in store more like £29 at the till TotalnWaste of time to be honest

Oh they've reduced that as well now bargain!!

That's the link for the single handset

It will if you take the picture sideways i.e portrait orientation Use the Landscape Orientation then your pictures won't have cropped sides either

It uploads sideways

How do people manage to take sideways pictures?

Seems a fantastic deal

My only problem with this is that the Call Guardian works too well. I went from having too many nuisance calls to no calls at all even from people who were actually trying to get through to us.

Presumably you tolerate all calls being announced; fair enough.

we dont have caller id and they work.. perfectly :)

Had these a while back. Found the sound rather quiet, and not great quality. Gave them away. Perhaps they have improved since then.

Now out of stock

Not really. Kitchen, living room, and 2 bedrooms.....

You need a massiiiiiiiiiive house to use these in

Seen them reduced in Tesco in-store. Have a look. Even cheaper. Don't remember the price. Found at Kettering and

Hot price, if set up properly these phones do stop all nuisance calls. At £8 a month (on top of line rental) I get unlimited calls to landline and mobiles, so yes I think landline phones are still valid, if not trendy!!!

Does anyone really still actually use a landline? I don't even have one plugged in, let alone 4! The only time I'd ever get a call was for PPI or accident claims, and the only reason there's even one connected to the house if to get a better broadband deal.
