Hi - anyone recommend their digital landline phone?Would like 4 hand sets , answer phone, decent range and an auto-redial function? (and any other functions I should be including?)
Need to buy fairly promptly as ours has become pretty unreliable. Thanks...

Consider SMS on your landline too.

Handy for the (infrequent at present, but possibly growing) messages, which are usually difficult to understand via text-to-speech (or answerphone might lose some of it anyway!)

Just been looking for another phone (for future second line) and seems Argos don't even mention it as a possible feature.

Cannot remember exactly which BT model I already have (it was a single unit, but under 40 quid as I have clear limits on what I'm willing to spend LOL).

I have not used 'Discount Comms' to be able to recommend them, but did find this 4-handset BT DECT phone set-up.

There is a whole load of different phones listed, so you may well find what you want from the others if this doesn't meet your needs.

I did find ONE quad handset package with answerphone - www.discountcomms.co.uk/acatalog/copy_of_NTL_Dect_with_Answer_Machine.html#a2861

There might be other options (adding handsets to some other package) though it could work out more costly, of course.

And finally...

I am sometimes wary of 0800/0845 (and especially when there's a PO Box involved) but the domain (.co.uk) is registered to someone in Windsor and the PO Box is in Horley. I've used their 'contact us' to highlight my 'worry' but it might be simply that owner lives in Windsor and using a warehouse and has staff at Horley...

Will report back when they have been in touch!
