Hi Hazel.

I believe the model is the doro 100W.

Very best wishes,

Mo.

Hi Henry.

It does seem to be hearing aid compatible and yes it has a volume control. Certain people have said that the function isn't that good, but I would try the handset for your self to make an informed judgement.

cheers,

Mo.

hi steve,

the only thing that doesn't speak is if you want to choose a different ring tone when adding someone to the phonebook.

so once you turn voice prompts on all buttons and menus speak.

if you go into the settings menu you can cursor up and down the catagories go in and out of the sub menus and make changes and it speaks everything to you.

you can cursor up and down the most recent incoming and outgoing calls and it either speaks the numbers or says the persons name if their in the phonebook.

if you want to call someone that is in the phonebook you press a button and it will anounce the first entry in alphabetical order and if you wanted to call someone named jane you would just press button 5 and it would jump to the first name begining with j and then you could cursor down the j's and it would speak them all.

and as i said the only bit that doesn't speak is when entering or editing a phonebook entry.

when you go to enter or edit an entry it will speak and ask you to enter the name and will speak each letter as you enter it, then it will ask you to enter the number and again will speak each number as you enter it, but the next 2 entries don't speak.

the first one of these is a list of different ring tones if you want to choose something specific for a particular person, and the second one is to record your own voice saying the persons name.

so for example once you are in the ring tone list pressing the next button will activate the microphone for you to start recording, pressing the next button again will stop the recordingand then when you press it again it will tell you the entry or changes have been saved.

pete.

    Hi Pete,

    So when you say everything talks, can you scroll contacts etc
    accessibly?  Can you add contacts accessibly to the phone book?

    I just think we need to be clear about statements like
    everything talks.  If it does, then that’s great, but it’s not
    my experience with talking cordless phones.

    All the best

    hi eric,

    take a look at the Doro 100w.

    you can buy then direct from doro or on amazon.co.uk

    on amazon you can buy a single phone with base station for
    around £35 or a duo pack for around £60.

    of corse there are lots of people charging much more than that
    on amazon so be careful which one you click on.

    these don't only have talking ID but you can turn voice prompts
    on which makes everything on the phones talk.

    infact i've just looked at the twin set on amazon and you can
    now get them for £51.50 on this url:
