I don't understand the bluetooth option. I am in an area with no cell service, so I'd like to be able to accept landline calls with my bluetooth, instead of the corded handset, the cordless handset, or a corded headset. Will it work like this???

The phone runs off your cell service. If you don't have any, you're not going to get calls.

I have not had any direct experience but I would assume it is similar to pairing with a bluetooth mobile phone. I would read your owner manual for the landline phone to see what it says about pairing with a bluetooth device. Between the two instructions (phone and speaker), you should be able to get them together.

Ha! I never tried it.... let me know if you do.. ok? I have only used this Bluetooth headset to talk and receive calls on my home cordless phone. If you clipped the wire onto your lapel to secure it I bet you could dance & sing along w/o a problem. if you try it and it works let me know.. have fun!

This headset works with a regular landline telephone. This headset does not have a dial pad, and it doesn't have a way to dial numbers. Once connected to a telephone, you will be able to answer calls and once you dial a number (from the actual telephone system) you will be able to use the headset to speak and hear the other person. Hope this helps.

We have a dedicated outlet for the headset base; it is not 'piggy-backed' off a land line phone. I have an echo for less than 5 seconds on occasion but not on every call. Make sure you 'hang up' your landline phone; that it is not in use while using your headset. I hope this helps.

Hi Jill these headsets don't work on bluetooth they work on DECT technology kind of like a cordless receiver. However there is a procedure if someone else has a Plantronics CS55 (Has to be an exact same CS55 model) you can pair it to another base. I have some instructions if you search google for "merrittcomm" and send us an email requesting for cs55 instructions I can provide them to you no problem. Thank you, David

It will not work with a cell phone. It will not work with the handeset of a cordless phone connected to a landline. It will work when it is plugged into a phone jack on the wall and then into a corded phone or the base of a cordless landline phone. It must also be an "analog" phone, which means that Internet services (VOIP) like Vonage and Comcast Digital Voice will not work. If you have basically the kind of phone service you had it 1980, it will work fine. I also note that when you are programming it, even with the base of a cordless phone, the phone must be "off the hook" while programming. So if you have a cordless phone you need to hear the dial tone while you program the numbers. Finally, note that if you unplug the unit from the phone line, it will lose all the numbers and they will need to be re-entered. It has no battery backup of any sort. But how often does you phone line go dead? Not often for me, so it seems to be an acceptable limitation for me.

I'm sorry I do not know the answer to your question....I never tried the blue tooth option.

I do not use Bluetooth anymore. The reliability of the connection is so bad, it renders this feature useless. It was the whole reason I got the phone system to begin with. When I did connect the sound quality was fine.

Any phone with blue tooth will pair to this. This is incredibly basic. No talking caller-ID or anything like that...it only rings. I bought one a couple weeks ago for my little prepaid phone and it works great. It's not very loud so I wouldn't recommend it for a loud truck or someone hard of hearing. I use it in my mini-van running kids around town all day and it's perfect for me.

Yes, you can connect the Bluetooth headset to the phone, on any line, however the quality is mediocre.

Bluetooth headsets are universal. If your phone is Bluetooth capable (like every phone on the market today), it will work with a Bluetooth headset. I have never heard of a Bluetooth headset that doesn't work with a Bluetooth phone.

I'm sorry, I have not used it that way. It is a wonderful Bluetooth and the customer support is excellent. I got a follow up call after purchasing the unit from Plantronics asking if I had any questions or issues; Wow! that has never happened. I would give the company a call and ask them directly. Based on the conversation I had with them, I think they will be able to advise you.

Hey, you can't make a call with just the headset. you have to use your phone. I will like to recommended you to buy it tho. It's one of the best I have ever use. I'm being honest with you bro. I never had a problem with it.

I see what you are talking about in the product listing, but this model does not have any bluetooth capability. It's plug in wire only. Not sure why it says anything about blue tooth in the product detail. PS: These headphones are TERRIBLE. They are not nearly as noise canceling as they should be. And it's annoying not be have a microphone to answer phone calls on the headset.

Actually if you use a Blue Tooth convergence phone like the AT&T; EP5632 you can have 2 devices paired to it. One of those devices can be your BT headset. You can then answer both your land-line and cellular calls through the BT headset.
