when a caller is leaving a message, do you hear the message as the caller is leaving the message?

Yes, you do hear the message as they are leaving it, so can decide if you want to answer it or not.

I know that when a call comes in, my phone is set up to ring 2wice, then it goes to answer machine, so caller can leave message. Now if caller wants to send fax, machine has a distinctive ring in which I know that the caller is sending a fax. I have an external answer machine ( At&t; answer machine ). So it works out fine in distinguishing a call or fax. I'm not sure what happens if someone sends a fax, and someone else calls at the same time to leave message

When a new message has been received, both hand units flash orange (or whatever the color) until you listen to the message. After the message has been played, the flashing color goes off. However, the base unit, which has a counter of messages, keeps the counter as the number of messages on the machine until you delete it/all messages.

Yes and when you have a message it will give you a funny beep when you pick up the phone to indicate messages.

Yes. If the person calling leaves a message it will alert you with a flashing number in the center of the charging unit. Push the top of the circle to listen, or pick up the handset and select message and it will play. You can press 3 to delete the message. Its all the operating pamphlet or you can go on line and download a full PDF instruction manual. It's really all very easy.

I believe you are able to hear the caller as soon as it begins. To tell the truth I don't pay that much attention to the callers.

If I understand you correctly you are asking if someone can just hear your message but not leave a message for you. If this is what you are asking, I don't think that is possible. I am not sure of how much time you have to record a greeting, but I know the answer is in the booklet you get with the phone.

Yes. There is a speaker. During a call one of the soft keys becomes speaker switch.

yes, it does. the recordings are nearly always crisp if a message is left and there is a caller log for 50 misssed calls with number date and time.
1072067
Yes it does. Mine seems a bit hard to hear. I must stand directly over the base unit to hear clearly. I can however play messages from the hand units. A flashing light lets me know there is one or more messages waiting. I hope this helps.

You cannot hear your message but you can hear the caller if the phone is set for call screening. Hope this helps.Amelia

No they dont unless you and the other person switch to different chanell sonobody can hear your conversation but if they hit search they will find out who is talking

Sometimes it will show the ID of call waiting and yes it does notify you of new messages if that is selected. You can turn this feature on or off.

Yes it announces who the caller is (if the caller is in your contacts) or will announce the phone number, then gives you the option to "answer" or "ignore". This specific feature is very nice because you don't have to look at your phone (i.e. while driving) to see who is calling. Another feature is that all sound goes to the Bluetooth, so I can have my phone on vibrate and it will let me also know when I have a text by sending my "text" sound to the device.

I have not had this happen, but I will try to find out tonight and let you know.**UPDATE**Sorry this is coming a bit later, but yes, the ringer will go through the speaker.
