Hi there - Can anybody help me. In October I changed from BT phone to Talk Talk and because I am deaf I have flashing lights to alert me to the phone. One up the stairs and down. Also I enjoy and really want caller display on my phone. Unfortunately Talk Talk is not up to the scratch of BT. Sometimes I get Caller Display sometimes I dont, sometimes the flashing lights work sometimes they dont - sometimes the flashing lights go off intermittently and nobody is on the phone - system is completely unpredictable. I do understand that I maybe have too many RENs running from the phones but BT were able to cope with them. However after a number of emails to Talk Talk and phone calls from my neighbour (cos I cant hear) Talk Talk keep saying it is fixed but of course it is not.

Can anybody tell me if it is true that Talk Talk are weak (though their costs are low) and advise me if I should go back to BT - please give me good advice - would appreciate it indeed. Ta in advance.

Homerbart, I too am deaf and am with BT. But I use the Geemarc range of telephones which ring quite loud and loud incoming volume.
I have one upstairs and downstairs.
I don't have called id on my phones, but I am sure they do phones with caller id on them.
Would this not help you??

thanks funnygirl. the problem does not lie with the actual phone as they are fine - it lies with Talk Talk they dont have enough voltage or whatever it is to cope with my demands.

On another note if you are registered deaf you could flashing phototype light added to your phone - you get this free from RNID. I could not be without it. anyway thanks for your answer
FREE, I am registered, but I must have missed this. I will look through my old 1 in 7's.

what is the old 1 in 7s - dont know what means. Anyway this photo flash thing is a white box and easily attached to your phone socket with a double adaptor. There is a window on the box and every time your phone rings the light flashes like a camera flash. Good luck but anyway again what is the old 1 in 7s. Contact RNID for this
