Landline phone - 1571

Options
I'm in the market for a new landline phone and I wondered if the 1571 service works with any landline?

    You need to check with your landline provider. It's nothing to so with the handset you purchase.
  • You can change your phone (device) and that does not affect your 1571 service.
    The service is linked to your provider. Often free but you might just have to pay for it as an option with some. I have had it a availablewith every provider for many a year so it could well be a facility by all....but perhaps somebody else can comment on that as I do not know the full market offerings.
