Hot because not everyone has a BT line. These phones work on all networks.

Yeah relapsed that just meant for future looks outs. What isles are these in cordless phone sections or random clearance sections of stores?

Hi what isle these in cordless phone isle? Or a random clearance isle?

After 4 months, good luck with that!

If it helps anyone, there are two of these left in the Elmers End Tesco. I bought the last triple version for £15 this afternoon. Great price.

just to add this particular BT handset in this deal only offers basic call blocking and does not feature the truecall technology that screens every call made to you.

if anyone wants to buy a set let me know as I have 2 sets. £20.

with the BT 8500, 8600, 8610 & 4600 they all feature truecall technology which screens all calls asking for their name and to press the # key before letting the phone ring which then gives you the option to accept their call or reject it. Most of these rouge callers give up at the screening stage meaning their is no need to block numbers.

Took the box to the self checkout and it was still full price :disappointed:

can the OP post the picture showing the reduced price separately please, I want to try the price check thing

same in Leyland, plenty of phones but full price

full price in swansea fforestfach store

£22.50 in my store

I haven't had to use the Block the Number option as the nuisance calls have stopped.

Checked in Glasgow and did see the phone but not on offer:(

please post barcode from box here, thanks

Yes, but that doesn't matter. I have the BT8500 and have never found the need to block a number. The Call Guardian puts off 99% of junk callers.

My point is they spoof the numbers, so it's pointless blocking them as the number is different every time.

I have the BT 8600 trio model and found it to be brilliant! Had been getting very aggressive and abusive calls from call centres (Asian) these calls have now stopped. If a call does happen to get through You have the option to BLOCK THAT NUMBER, it will never get through again. TrueCall is how BT branded their system. We think its fantastic!!

If this is the phone I think it is, take a look at this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVHcNZGGLi0
Basically, you get a "middle man", and the spammers/cold callers know this and just move on

The only people I find less likely with the Call Guardian system are cold callers, friends and family actually phone the landline more often now with the Call Guardian system as they go straight through and we make an effort to answer it. Before there were so many cold callers that it wasn't worth answering the phone for and genuine callers would probably leave a message. Callers who aren't on the system but genuine go through the Call Guardian system without issue.

Call blockers are now useless, because spammers spoof the Caller ID system, which is a very poorly devised system with entirely inadequate levels of security. I have a CPR Call Blocker which is entirely useless for the function to which it's employed - blocking spam calls. The reason for this is that a single spammer can change their telephone number every time they call you and there's nothing you can do about it, if you block the number the next call they make will be using a different number anyway so they'll still get through.

Here's a free advert for CPR Call blockers of which I have one, they're absolutely useless >

Notice how they don't advertise that they can block Spoofed ID calls, that's because they can't and any spammer worth their weight in spam will be spoofing numbers now as they will get through. You'd need BT Call Guardian or similar system to stop them, but then you might as well not have a telephone as no one will want to phone you anyway.

We have a set of these. The only people who can call us are those whose numbers we have pre-programmed. Everyone else has to identify themselves, then the phone will ring us to find out if we want to speak to the person. We can allow the call, send it to answerphone or block it. No nuisance calls, or unwanted calls, have got through since we bought these phones.

Shame I don't live near Lichfield, would like a new phone :smiley:

Cold coz BT have a free service now for blocking calls.

survey calls still get through

Excellent price for quality phones.
