I recently purchased a Powertel 49 plus and must thank you for the speed in which I received it.
The phone does exactly as described and allows me to hear the caller much better. However, one slight little flaw is that as I tend to speak there is a 'clicking' noise after every word on the line. Although it distracted me at first I have now got used to it.
Many thanks

There was an initial issue concerning the handset in that one could hear but not talk to the person on the other end - the microphone did not work.
We recognised that the very small connector strips in the phone-to-handset cord were slightly out of alignment.
So we fixed this with a very small screwdriver. No problem.
However this did take some time. Other customers may simply return the phone to you saying the handset does not work (which is true).
Potential manufacturing/ handset testing issue here.
Overall satisfaction 7.5/10 - shame about the initial problem. Sales person excellent with delivery after 3 days.

I would rate the service I have been given as 5. The communication and delivery was excellent and I will have no hesitation in recommending your services to other people. The phone is excellent and has helped me greatly.
Thank you

Excellent service! Well done HearingDirect!
I bought an Amplicom PowerTel 49 Plus last week and within 3 days it had arrived safely and wonderfully packed. I am very impressed by the way my order was processed and handled. The phone is also great: nice feel, looks good, clear sound. I particularly like the 40dB booster as I always find it so hard to hear people on the phone.

in the time i have had this amplicom 49 telephone everything seems to be working smoothly particularly the 40 decibal volume enhancer to the receiver, if i had one little niggle the connecting cable to the phone socket could have been a little longer still worth a 5 stars

Received order promptly - good email service. Exellent variable amplification. ( A point of interest - sometimes its not US who have difficulty hearing callers but THEM! - the mumblers, the fast talkers and dare I say the foreigners!)
I rate it 4/5 - not qualified to give it a full mark as I have not used all the facilities available yet, I use mobile text and email most of the time!
Perhaps other customers may like a choice of colour?
