Can cell calls use answering machine
897703
No, when a cellular phone has been registered to the system its incoming calls can not use this system's answering machine. Only the cellular companies voice mail service.

Absolutely! But only if your cell provider doesn't pick it up first. You may be able to set your cell phone to pick up after 5 rings, in which case the home phone answerer will pick it up first. Hope that helps.

you have the option of using the answer machine or not. I do not as I get my messages through my phone service.

The previous answer is correct. This is not a sophisticated phone system. It's just a quality cordless phone with a "slave phone". You can hook up an answering machine as you would a conventional phone.

Sorry, but I don't use the answering system it offers, but a voicemail my phone company provides. I can of course check that from any handset. Not sure about the built in answering system and its accessibility from handsets.

None,it doesn't work that way all calls go through your Caller ID and Answering Machine.As two other people have commented on this,i couldn't have said it better myself,if you buy it you won't believe the quiet you'll get from it.I'm still very happy with mine,this was a wise investment on my part.

No. Most phone service comes with voicemail these days, so it's hard to find phones that include answering machines.

It can call cellphones but it cannot be connected to them instead of a landline. It has to detect dialtone before it can make an outbound call.

Yes. after a few seconds you will hear "this is an emergency call , please press (I forget the number). this way the machine knows you are not voice mail. If you don't answer or it goes to voice mail , it moves on to the second phone no. that you programmed

This model has no answering machine. I saw a model with one when I was looking but I have forgotten which. Sorry

No, there is no answering machine, just plain cordless phone and this is what I need because my phone line is shared with my fax machine.

Yes. This works just like a regular modern-day phone. I have both an answering machine and a caller ID module attached to mine. I have the polished brass version, which is the same. I love this phone. Everytime I pick it up to answer it, visitors are shocked that it really works and is not just a "conversation" piece. I also feel like I'm back in the thirties. Please note that the earpiece gets heavy after some minutes. This is a great phone to get for someone in your family who talks too much as the weight will help to keep conversaitions shorter.

My cell device does not offer this as a feature so I can not say if you would hear the callers name. I do hear the phone rings and my specific ring announcements (you have a text, your mother is call, its the boss do not answer the phone). I suspect that hearing names would work.

No this phone does not have an answering machine feature, you would have to purchase a separate answering machine.

Yes, you can access the answering system remotely - you set up a 3-digit access code that you enter when the greeting message starts. We do it all the time - no problems!
