Dm is a reluctant phone user with no internet access at home. She recently had some problems with her old Nokia and is a bit fed up of what is, for her, a fiddly little keypad. She just wants the option of making and receiving calls on pay and go.
She said she was going to pop into town to speak to those nice people at [Insert name of store]. I'm nervous she'll come out with a contract smartphone or something. Any suggestions as to the best kind of phone? Her eyesight is pretty poor for anything little and fiddly.

I got one for my dad from Sainsburys on PAYG. It was £20 odd, and had nice big buttons.

I think it was this one

That looks just the thing.

Doro make great, easy to use phones for older people. They are uncomplicated and have larger keys.

MIL had one, but by the time she got it she had already started with her memory problems and hardly ever used it.

note she needs to use it at least every 6 months or they will take the number off the phone and make the phone useless, you will also lose any credit.

Have a look at the Doro. My DM has one and finds it very simple to use

Doro are good for somebody who wants an easy to use, big button phone.
