Evening all - I have a pair of BT HomeHub phones and while the HomeHub is great....the phones are just awful!!

They have the "feature" of ringing and when you press answer they reset! Nice....

Does anyone have any ones to recommend? Not too keen on BT handsets now - these ones are only a year or so old and always keen just crappity!

A pair would be handy and budget is pre pay day.....none existant!

Thanks guys

Never had any issues with our Panasonic's


Also had BT phones once before,, not again though

I got a set of Siemens 'Gigaset' cordless phones from Comet at a reasonable price.

Work well, nice keypad, easy-to-read-and-understand multi-colour display. Oh - also has a digital answerphone (memory, not tape).

Siemens

panasonics for me too

None

Most of the ones I've had are either kerrap or the battery is, which is great when you're on hold for 10 mins and the battery lasts 5. Also someone picks it up and then puts it down in place unknown so we just have a corded one.

Although we have a Siemens one, we also liked the look and feel of the Panasonic ones. Both have a 'good mobile phone' feel to them, rather than the flabby, nasty feel of the BT ones.

I think our decision came down to the price in the end... the Siemens was a bit cheaper.

Thanks guys - Will take a good old gander at the two brands and see which offers better value!

i have a set of 3 panasonics, 2 in the house and 1 down the garage. works perfect, digi answer phone best thing ever. lasts at least an hour calltime too.

another vote for panasonic had ours for years now never missed a beat good batter life, good long range clear and loud

Thanks guys, leaning towards Panasonic...they seem slightly cheaper!

me to like panasonics for me, never been a problem.

As an aside, it was recommended by the local fire service to have at least one coded phone, as in the event of a fire cordless phones may not work.
