Don't buy the keyring type recorder either, it went into the bin five minutes after it arrived.

Hi Andy

Whatever you do, don't buy the 12-minute plastic job from RNIB.  There is
very little feedback to indicate you are recording, particularly as you have 
a hearing difficulty, and it's cheap and nasty!

Sorry, but that's the size of it.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Roger - Couldn't find anything similar on the Maplin website. Most of the recorders they have for this kind of thing come in at around £150. They have 
something else at about 60 quid that uses cassettes. I really just want a
digital recorder that will record about 10 minutes of messages when on a
call, that I can then transfer to wherever I want to store the info -

I went and bought a telephone call recorder from Maplin Electronics
some years ago that I'm still using.  All it is is a cable that plugs into
the telephone jack socket and the telephone plugs into that. The other end
plugs into a recording device. It was originally a cassette recorder but is now hard memory voice recorder. If during the call I need to note details I 
simply press the record button. At the end of the call just play back and
use the information you needed to record the call for. All for the princely sum of under £20 plus the recorder I bought mine several years ago for £9.95 
and the recorder was £17.99 but inflation will have increased these prices
somewhat I should think.

Hi all -

I'm looking for a cheap but reliable gadget to have near my phone
for jotting down phone numbers and brief messages when on a call. I don't
want to pay hundreds of pound for loads of bells and whistles, just want a
simple instantly recording device. Any suggestions? -

Andy
