TTfone Star Big Button Simple Easy to Use Clamshell Flip SIM-Free Mobile Phone - White

At first very pleased, however charged up with my Tesco SIM in it. Then proceed to add phone number hubby will need all very simple. Had it a few weeks battery low so popped it in the charger out of the month guarantee out by now the phone won't charge at all. tried it for a good few weeks no joy. I wouldn't mind if I had purchased £19.99 second-hand one no I purchased the new one??? !!!.

I WAS LOOKING FOR AN EASY TO READ, EASY TO USE, NO BELLS AND WHISTLES PHONE, I FOUND IT IN THIS. I WANTED BIG NUMERALS AS THESE ARE EASIER TO SEE, A STRAIGHT FORWARD PHONE THAT I COULD JUST DIAL THE NUMBER I REQUIRED AND GET THROUGH WITHOUT ANY FANCY ADD-ONS, THIS DOES IT FOR ME, AND I HAVE TOLD A LOT OF MY 'ELDERLY' FRIENDS ABOUT IT AND THIS SEEMS TO MEET THE CRITERIA FOR WHAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR, WORKS WELL FOR ME, GO ON THEN , BUY ONE.

Arrived speedily. So easy to set up and really easy to use. Very simple which is why I bought it - don't need all the fancy gadgets on a smartphone just the ability to contact or text someone. The charger is a great idea and so much better than the fiddly little connector, although that is still available if necessary. I only have 2 minor niggles; after setting up my emergency call I walked the dog and dropped my bag in the process of playing with him and the button set off, gave my daughter quite a fright, so I have now turned it off; the second niggle is that when I inserted my sim the telephone directory can only read one number so the mobile no. and house no. have to be separate - took me a while to collect all the numbers again.

I didn't want a smart phone and was still using my 14 year old Nokia despite having bought more modern phones which I didn't like and were a waste of money. I saw this phone and liked the larger buttons which is a plus for somebody my age, and also that it was a folding phone which I had not tried before. The price was very reasonable and so far I love the phone, I can't find anything negative to say about it.

I'm a total technophobe so have struggled with phones in the past which have multiple menus. This one looked simple and my fiancé charged it for me on the cradle provided. I wanted the same set up I had years ago where I'd give Tesco ten pounds at the checkout and that would last me forever. (I made so few calls that I never used the full ten pounds.) He bought me a ten pound Vodaphone credit at Tesco but, when we phoned them, they wanted a credit card and would take a monthly top up charge of ten pounds for it. This would mean that the mobile would cost me £120 a year and I might use it four times. At the moment, my phone is sitting unused as I am reluctant to spend that amount of money for something I only want to use occasionally.
