GE 29869GE2 Digital Answering System with 4 Mailboxes

While this is no longer considered to be "obsolete," I have owned one for several years, and it still vastly superior to the voice mail system of my telecom company. Despite being powered, the battery discharges even if it is not provided with power this means that power failures always result in messages being lost). This is why I replaced it with another model of the exact same type. As seen in the picture. This has the advantage of being very easy to do. Well, there are several of them. The convenience of having multiple mailboxes is appealing to me. In the event I do not have time to deal with a message, I move it to various "bins" (personal, business, etc. ). Having fun is not an option. My messages should be local, so I prefer them to be.

Using voice mail is the best way to control it if you are middle aged. TAM has a wealth of features and a high performance rating. A time limit of 40 minutes has been set. My total record time was the fastest of all the systems I have used. The voice quality was exceptional and the possibility of having 4 mailboxes is fantastic if you need to route messages to different family members or use the same TAM at home and at work. Because you do have only one password to retrive messages remotely, every member of the family will be able to hear you. There is a quirk with this memory stick in the way it will only remember data if the power is turned You should use a 9-volt lithium battery, and you should be careful not to remove the power cord plug. As soon as you disconnect the power cord, you are forced to reset the machine. It cost less than a hundred bucks when it was originally for sale. There will be a 300 fee. If you would like a nos unit, you must call today at 00.

I was told there was no supervisor available when I asked to speak to a supervisor and no one returned my phone call when I requested one. In addition, the number is not toll free and I was on hold for more than Then, despite the information I provided in my letter, I received a letter back stating they were unable to contact me the same day they received my letter, but I was given a toll free number to call and a case number to refer to. A quirk of the device is that, even with the battery installed, memory is lost when the power cord is disconnected from it. Nevertheless, memory can still be accessed while it's still plugged in to the wall. A power outage to me is the same as a power outage. As so far as I could determine from the representative who had to research it while I waited, it appears that the plug in the device maintains some kind Most devices use backup batteries to function when the power is lost, so it seems this mechanism is counterproductive. Two advantages are (1) the multiple mailboxes - they allow users to manage their emails no matter the power goes out. (2) the ability to set a time limit for messages, which can be clearly stated in your greeting, so I do not have to listen to all of my wife's organizational calls. As a result, listeners will not have to listen to long meandering messages. It's a relatively small defect, but I would not consider it a major one - both the greeting and the messages left are of relatively poor quality The technology is much better than it used to be.

In other reviews, there was a complaint that the loudness of the sound (both of the outgoing message and the received message) was poor. There is a great deal of merit to the complaints. While the quality of this audio is poor, it won't interfere with listeners' comprehension, except if they have problems with auditory processing. This machine is quite compact. When you play back the NEW message, it will automatically play back the old (saved) message - it requires no additional steps - until the new message is played back. It's a bit of a nuisance, but you can keep pressing the forward key on your keyboard repeatedly to skip them. I wouldn't call it an excellent answering machine, but it's one of the few machines in the market that offers more than one mailbox. It is important to know that an automated call (such as the one we received about a medical appointment, so it was crucial) will go to the first mailbox. This is not the worst, it's not the best, but it's good enough. This is not something I'm sorry I bought.
