Can you mix and match with this phone? I have an AT and T with answering machine. Just want an extra unit and would turn off the answering machine.

I believe you can only match with a Panasonic phone, I added to more additonal phones with this model you can do the same, they all work great.

The answering machine function is with your phone, not the OBI. You need to have a phone service with the OBI, and whoever your provider is can also offer an answering function, but you can elect to just have your panasonic phone system be your answering function

Yes. We have two lines, one with the phone company's voice mail and one with no added features. On our AT&T; phone set we have the answering machine turned off for the line with voice mail and turned on for the line without.

Mine was locked in to T-Mobile. I do have an AT&T; phone that has the AT&T; logo on it but I had it unlocked and now I can use anything on it. I looked at the web page again an it does specify T-Mobile so I would think you would have to unlock it to use it with someone else.

yes !.............but to be honest with you. I had nothing but problems with this phone and At&t; kept giving me the runaround and so I just purchased a cheaper phone on my own. At&t; would not replace the phone. The phone sucked !!!!

No! This phone is not compatible with AT&T; as of September 2014. They will come out with a new phone, a 3G phone that works with AT&T;, until then this phone only works with AT&T; if you have an existing 2G SIM card. You can't get new service with them.

ZI am sorry but I got rid of this and got an AT&T; cordless system through Staples that came with a 2nd handset. But basically all these cordless land line phones work the same. Menu>Answering sys>select. then arrow up or down >ans sys setup.select# of rings . select choose 2,3,4,5,6>select.

I am now on my second at&t phone set and once again I have a battery issue which made me replace the previous set in the first place! I enjoyed its functions but now I have decided to purchase a different phone set to replace it and will go with a different company this time!!! but yes you can silence the caller id by going into menu and select caller id and choose on or off to both the base or handset. if I did not have this battery issue I would highly recommend this phone.......

thanks for the info, but it acts as though I am just another caller, when I get to voice mail...when do you add the pin code to get access to voicemail??? I am a newbie to Tracfone, and really like this phone...but have always had a phone, where accessing voicemail was free and easy.TIA

I wish I could help you. I think being able to ask questions of someone who already uses a particular product is great. Unfortunately I no longer have or use this product. I remember really liking it. I bought another phone that allowed me to sync with my cell phone and have my cell calls ring on my home phone. Sounded great but had issues so I disabled that feature. It's been a while but I think another issue I ran into was this phone stopped holding a charge and replacing the battery was expensive. Good luck getting your question answered.

The phone lets me know who is calling. I don't think there is the option of a different ring for different callers. Maybe someone else can answer your 2nd question better than me. Also read more about what the technical information about the phone.

I am going to say no. I did not purchase the other phones that came with this one. I purchase two princess style phones and I had to program both of them separately. I hope this helps you.

You have to check your operator frequency and compare with the working frequency of the phone. They must match.

I mix and match mine all the time. you can also order one custom directly from the Otterbox site, unfortunately you have to pay a much higher price and shipping though.

Yes you can set different tones, different volumes or no ring at all (as we do for our fax line). Our main issue is that we wish we had the ability to forward calls to someone's voice mail (and we don't with this system)
