Landline Phones.

[Tilly2]

We no longer have an outside telephone line. We have a Panasonic handset with two aditional phones which we no longer need.

I am going to put them on to Freegle for anyone who wants them. Do I need to do anything beforehand to remove all the data from the phone? I have let the batteries run down. Will this be enough?

If you have a number phonebook within the handset(s) you will need to delete that.

[Tilly2]

I do. Thank you, 237.

Which may mean recharging the batteries?

[Mozz71]

It might be wise to recharge the batteries anyway Tilly, so they can be tested by any potential new owner before the take them.

[Tilly2]

Yes, Perseverer!  You are right.

I've just found that out. 🙄

We have a Panasonic phone; with ours you can have 2 phonebooks - a common one and one for each handset. If yours is the same make sure you clear all the phonebooks.

I wouldn't expect a stranger to want to enter my home to test a free electrical item.
