OT sms Landline phones

[Davao]

Hi all. I'm looking to buy a multi handset landline phone that receives SMS messages. Do they do what it says on the tin? SMS from Cellphone to home? and vice-versa..regardless of landline contract type?

Recommendations?

Fairly sure you need to subscribe to the Caller ID service and have a POTS line.

This is what my parents have, and it works. They tell me caller ID is free now.

[S Viemeister]

Yes - it's free, if you continue to use BT for at least a few calls.

Is it by George. I bet that's only on POTS though not ISDN. B-(

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for all replies. But it looks like I'd have to pay another 50 quid a quarter. They can shove it!
