AT&T EP5962 - 5.8GHz Expandable 2-Line Corded / Cordless Answering System Reviews

the message part works fine too but the voice quality is less that I would like all the features work great.

 

You'd think it would be easier to just dial the number yourself - BUT YOU CAN'T, BECAUSE THE CID SCREEN WON'T KEEP THE NUMBER UP WHILE YOU DIAL IT. SO.THE CALL CANNOT GO THROUGH. EVER. I actually look forward to it breaking so I can just throw it away.

Unless you need to get in touch with your anger. THANKS AT&T. I could go on and on, but I have a life. You can find a "dialing option" by scrolling through the commands, and then when you find it, you can find the option you want.and it's the very last one: the 10-digit number plus a 1, which, btw, works even if it's a local call. Let's say someone calls you and and you want to call them right back which I need to do several times a day. There are a million little MORONIC things like this supposedly advanced phone that are just not thought out, all of which make you really admire the iphone for really avoiding bad design like this, and thinking the dumb stuff through. There were few options in the 5.8 field.so I bought this. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE.

This phone is, simply put, a disaster. I was told and like a sap, I believed it that I needed a 5.8 ghz phone so it wouldn't interfere with the wireless router for the computer. The number of keys you have to dial to get to this option.

One of the worst designed, most poorly thought out products I have ever had the displeasure to own. 9.

Here's why. When you just hit the button to see the list of recent calls (called CID, for whatever reason), it dials the 10-digit last number WITHOUT THE '1' FIRST. Nothing is intuitive.

God, how I hate it.

 

Plug and play. Does not have voicemail light for services provide by your LEC> Very easy to set up. I found the cordless phone to be very clear when talking. I purchased this product for home office use.

 

Fortunately, I am still able to return the phone, but it will be for a refund, not for warranty. AT&T agrees the phone is defective and can be replaced under warranty. And its replacement will not have AT&T on it. I generally like the phone.

However, one problem has been that about 5% of the time when I try to use the handset, either starting on the speaker-phone or picking up the handset initially, the other party can not hear me, even though I can hear them. However, they require the phone and all original components be shipped to them in Texas, and then (sometime later) they will send a working phone back. I called back to ask specifically if they could charge the replacement to my credit card and send it to me before I send my existing one back (most electronics manufactures seem to do this). The rep informed me that they don't have any such capability and cannot send any replacement phones out until the phone being replaced has physically been returned. Why they think that a business is able to go several weeks (or more) without a phone is a mystery to me.

Even if I switch to speaker-phone, the other party is still unable to hear me.

 

Sound quality is good & the portable unit works great but the base unit is so user unfriendly it is not worth owning. I'm going to end up putting the base in the basement, so I can still use the cordless unit, and putting my old two-line at&t back in my office.
