My daughter bought this phone for me and as first I liked it, but now i can get incoming calls and cannot answer them. I read the manual and it has nothing to say about how to correct this issue. How do we fix this problem?

Hi! Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear you liked the phone at first, and we’re sorry this issue with incoming calls has been frustrating. Based on the symptoms described, this does not appear to be caused by the phone itself and is more commonly related to the telephone line or service setup. We also understand your point about the manual not addressing this clearly, and that feedback is helpful.
Bought this to replace a similar Panasonic phone setup that I had for years. I like it very much, and the built-in flashlight is a great feature. Gave 4 stars instead of 5 because there is no wall mount for the base unit.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am very pleased with the phone. My one concern is that it doesn't have a talking phonebook like my previous Panasonic phone. I really liked that feature.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Carol! Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you’re pleased with your phone. We appreciate your thoughts on the talking phonebook feature, hearing how customers use and enjoy past features helps us consider improvements for future designs.
This phone is great for seniors. You can call your favorite person by only pushing 2 buttons. Decent volume. Easiest phone I have found for my sight challenged elderly husband.

Hello! Thank you for your kind words. We're so pleased to hear that the phone has been a helpful solution for your husband. Simplicity and accessibility are at the heart of the design, and it's wonderful to know that features like quick dialing and clear volume are making everyday communication easier.

Hello Linda! We’re genuinely sorry to hear you’ve had a frustrating experience setting up your voicemail. If you wish to record a greeting for your phone, please make sure the answering machine is turned on by pressing ANSWER ON/OFF on the main base. Then, you can record a greeting by pressing MENU, then [#] (pound key) and then typing 302. Your input is valuable, and we’ll definitely be reviewing how we can make the instructions clearer and the process easier. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

Hi Marilyn! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We're glad to hear you're enjoying the phone overall. Battery performance can vary depending on usage patterns, features in use, and the types of batteries you use. If you have AAA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries with a higher amperage the charge will last longer. Please make sure to keep the handsets on the charging cradle when they are not in use. We appreciate your feedback and will certainly keep it in mind as we continue developing products designed to meet a variety of user needs.
We've used Panasonic phones for awhile. My husband can't get used to mobile phones so he has an old flip phone style one for when he leaves the house, otherwise he uses a landlane. We haven't used this system long, but first off, he couldn't figure out how to get to the intercom. That's the only reason I gave it a 4 rating. They switched out the shortcut for the directory which has another shortcut. I would LOVE to see a version where I got to pick what the shortcut is. It should be the intercom. We bought enough to use all 6 extensions. Love that we can name the extensions. I used a sharpie to color the call block button red. Like the square button for shortcut directory. Haven't used the other features enough to rate them.
I would recommend this to a friend!
