Great and promising buy

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this after my current phone service kept going up, with every one in the house hold already having cell phones this line is more for emergency's and loved ones who have known my home phone # for years so i keep it. this product came with a month of premium service, i ported my old phone number for 40 dollars and had to wait a month really before getting a chance to actually take advantage of there premium 9 dollars a mouth service of course it was too late by then oh well, im sure is a great deal provided what you get,, however email after email a few calls and even a servery plus a promise of a free gift if keep this service really got annoying real quick. although they have died down , once you get past that initial annoyance. its hard to complain. considering its still saving a whole lot of money monthly i mean in just a few months, i will have saved enough money to justify my initial cost plus the extra 35 dollars for the one day of service the other guys billed me for calming i still had service with them on that Day i was scheduled to have my phone transferred over to be in service with Oomma, (they clamed oomma never requested to have my phone number stopped with them as there instructions said other wise with the whole porting process) I was told if you just notify your old phone company they will work something out so you don't get billed an extra mouth for one day of service which should never have happened in the first place , they want you to call so they have more of an excuse to get you to stay they will attempt to bring your phone service down to 9 dollars too likely. this still was not in the best interest for me considering i dont make a lot of national calls ,Needless to say im still trying to figure out how to configure the amount of times the phone rings before its auto answer machine picks up i do not fuss with the online log in i just set it up and forgot about it , i'm use to my current phone answer machine its not easy to get the perfect mail phone box message you know so i stick with what i got, unfortunately it only rings a few times before it picks up since im still meaning to get around to changing it off the default 5 rings i set my regular one to 4 .all in all there are lots of neat and promising cool new features Omaha seems to be working on to bring to there paid service, like Custom mp3 ring tones for when some one that calls the house a shout outs like John is calling or Its your Mother, and the ability to use the phone even when power is lost or the internet is down (not sure how they will pull that one off but it leaves me looking forward to seeing whats to come, or what of those features they will provide , id suggested the ability to pick up your home phone calls on your cell phone. there's a spot for you to fill in the blanks so to speak give ideas , all in all a real good product that truly seems to be driven by the consumer
What's great about it: setup was painless call quality great only a couple of lost calls
What's not so great: customer service pushy to go with the premium service
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We need 4 phones with at least a 50 ft range outside the home that has an answering machine base. Which one is the "best buy"? Hee Hee
my current phone worked well for 50 plus feet it has its own base and you can hook up even more head sets,. basically its all on the frequency the more rare your frequency from what i understand the further i lived in between tall apartments and lots of trees granted i was on the 3rd floor it worked good its a GE 2.4 ghz hope that helps i see best buy does not sell this one but there are some comparable ones like this one that lets you link up your cell phones via Bluetooth Panasonic - Link2Cell DECT 6.0 Plus Expandable Cordless Phone System with Digital Answering System
