Hi Derek,
I have no idea either, but I will ask someone in our Sensory Service team the
question about how Deafblind people are expected to use cash machines, and let
you know if their reply adds any knowledge.
Best,
Clive

And what if the screen has no physical buttons
i.e. is touch screen?
And what if user is deafblind!

Usually a socket to the left of the slot into which the card goes.

How do I know a machine is a talking one? What should I look for next time I'm
at a cashpoint?
Thanks

Hi, yes, I have used this type of machine and was very impressed with
it.
You need to have some headphones to hand in order to use it, but from
then
on it is really good. It guides you through the process of using the
machine if you have not used one before. It does tell you what type of
notes are available, but I am sorry to say that I can't remember if it
lets
you choose the type you want.

Hi All
Has anyone used the new type of cash machines Barclays are bringing
out.
Just been told that the machine lets you choose type of notes.
So one can choose all £5s £10s £20 etc I am told the machine is a
touch
screen type but I am not so sure I have been told right though.

Hi Clive
As far as I know, the Roberts Play is just that.
The lock switch puts the radio into normal or rechargeable battery mode.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Brown

Thanks Carol,
I may look for one of these. What is this lock switch, and why does it
have
to be in a particular position.
Does anyone actually have the model name for either of these (bush
abc123 or Roberts R9999 or whatever)?
Thanks,
Clive

We have the Roberts Play and have had it now a little over a year.
Jackie did a very good review. We both like it very much. I think we
paid
around £50, or so. We purchased it from Wireless for the Blind.
Briefly, you can set 10 pre-sets, 5 for DAB and 5 for FM. You can
either
use ordinary alcoline AA batteries, or rechargeable. We think
rechargeable
are the best for something like this and we're still on our first set
and
charge about once a week. There is a charger with the radio.
If you decide to go that route, just be careful that you have the lock
switch inside the battery compartment in the right position before
inserting
rechargeables. Fortunately, we had someone to check as they were here
at
the time it arrived so, worst comes to worst, we could probably guide
you
through that one, though it may well be that Wireless for the Blind
would
set that up already for you if you asked.
By the way, Jackie's review of this and other radios are on her site at
http://www.thebrownsplace.info/
Cheers and we hope this might help you.

Hi all,
Last week, someone mentioned a £40 portable, or was it pocket
digital radio available from Argos, which is relatively easy to use
with no
useful reading sight. Does anyone have a model number, or more
information
about what to look for?
Thanks,
Clive
