Does anyone know of a good phone for an older person? It has to be easy to use, big buttons, etc. and if possible on a cheap PAYG tariff.
Many thanks,
Neversay.

another question for you, is the phone simple to use, we tried to give lessons on how to do a text message and how to make calls but she couldnt get to grips with the text bit and sometimes she forgot what buttons to pressNo Links in Signature by site rules - MSE Forum Team 20
