Over the last two years the upper frequencies of my hearing have deteriorated and I now need digital hearing aids which can make the use of a phone almost impossible. However the Paragon with its clear sound,variable volume and built in induction loop takes care of this and makes an ideal phone for those with hearing impairement or even a noisy office enviroment.
The large blue back-lit lcd display is easy to see in any light conditions.
The answering machine controls are well marked and easy to use. The sound quality of the recorded messages is first class on the speaker and handset.
The good sized buttons and standard text entering method make the entering of information into the phonebook or texting simple and easy.
The Paragon is a bit more expensive than some similar phones on the market but you get what you pay for, a well built easy to use phone suitable for home or business use. One of the best I have ever used.

There have been so many horrified comments on this and other websites about the naff ringtones on the Paragon 550 that I must share my discovery. I bought this phone last week, and almost returned it because the ringtones were even worse than what had been described. But I persevered - and am glad to report that there IS one ringtone which is just a conventional ring. You need to listen through the whole lot carefully, and you'll find it: it's a steady continuous ringing sound and sounds pretty awful, but when it's selected and the phone actually rings, it breaks up just as the normal ringtone on any other landline phone does. It's perfectly acceptable, and as far as I'm concerned does away with the only reason for not buying this phone, which is everything the other satisfied customers have said it is: easy to set up and operate, with very good quality sound, at a very good price.

BT Paragon 550 Corded Telephone Answering Machine - White
I purchased this from Amazon after searching through BT products on their own website. Amazon was cheaper. I chose this model as I am tired of the BT Answering Machine going wrong after only just out of guarantee. This telephone I find attractive, but found it very difficult indeed to understand the instructions and negotiate recording my message. It must have taken me over 20 attempts. The ringing tones are not exactly what I want, but I have heard worse in the High Street from mobiles. I understand this model should help the hard of hearing but I am not convinced. Once set up, I am absolutely delighted with it and would recommend purchase, with the proviso that a whole evening will have to be taken up in trying to understand the instructions and then recording your message.

Don't lose the handbook!
More functions than I really need and I find the brightness of flashing lights a bit irritating. However, the sound is clear and overall I'm pleased with it.

Excellent Phone.
Very Good loud clear speech, through the handset, and loudspeaker. The ring tones, are not the loudest, but not a problem for us, as we have more than one phone. Read more

Richard's opinion of BT Paragon Phone/Answering machine
Although the machine was advertised as second hand, it arrived safely in its box, all packed up as though it were new. It works perfectly and takes up so little space on the desk. Read more
