AT&T 2256 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Extra Handset and Answering Machine

Rating:
Summary: My parrot loved this phone.
Review: This phone cuts out and clicks -- once every few minutes. Every conversation: the other person would be in the middle of talking, then they'd hear clicking noises and I'd hear them say "Hello? Hello? Are you still there?". I got used to saying "Sorry, it's my phone." My troubleshooting indicated that it was this phone model, not my phone line or any sort of interference. I borrowed a friend's 2.4 GHz phone and had no problems. Back to the AT&T 2256, and every call was the same mess. I finally gave the phone to my parrot to have fun picking off the buttons. Also poor quality on the answering machine. Sometimes you couldn't understand a word of their message. Once in a while it was just a fool who didn't enunciate... but usually it was clear to be the machine's fault. Right now my parrot is screaming "Sorry! It's my phone!" I wonder where he picked that up?
