Our Review: | Pro:
The combination of the Screen
Machine and the TeleZapper™ make this the best buy. This device sends a signal to the computer dialed telemarketing calls and tricks it into thinking that your number has been disconnected. Con:
It runs on batteries. Can use an optional 6v AC adapter. | Pro:
If you share the phone line with your children, get this phone just for the distinctive ring feature. Know who the call is for before you pick up the phone. Con:
You may need an additional
piece of hardware for this device to ring all the phone in some homes.
| Pro:
This device sends a signal to the computer dialed telemarketing calls and tricks it into thinking that your number has been disconnected. ** Con:
Only a small percentage
of telemarketing calls are computer dialed and can be stopped. Does not affect direct dialed calls.
| Con:
Pay a monthly fee, plus a setup fee. Then add the distinctive ring and it will really add up. $144+ per year, ouch! |
