Review: Last week I went to a local branch of a national electronics chain, to find something to allow me to record both sides of phone calls, and was advised to buy two separate gadgets by their adviser, who assured me these would allow me to record calls on my cordless landline (one was the small 'retel' box type device, which plugs directly into the phone line; the other was an amplifying device, a basic suction cup, to stick directly onto the phone - total cost of £28). Having spent 2 days testing them over and over again, only to discover that neither worked, at all. The caller's voice was completely inaudible when recording were played back, so I returned them for a refund. Their tech guy said the gadgets they'd sold me "work perfectly well for other customers" (!!), and when I offered to replay him my recordings, to prove the caller's voice was completely inaudible, he declined, then told me the fault was "not the gadgets", but the fact I had a "BT Cordless phone" (!), even though, as I pointed out to him, one of the gadgets was clearly labelled as being "suitable for all cordless phones". Anyway, that's why I ended up on here searching for something for easy and clear recording of both sides of 'phone calls. I opted for this gadget, partly due to the reasonable price, and also having already had to return one of the retel box type recorders, as already explained. I'm glad I did, as this little gadget has proved to be an excellent and affordable solution (I use it with a Sony PX333 Voice Recorder. It's so easy to use, and is great as I can also record calls to my mobile just as easily as to the landline, and it is portable (can take it out with me to use with mobile if necessary). The caller's voice is (so far!) recording perfectly and clearly. I did initially hesitate before buying this, as thought maybe wearing the earpiece when using the phone might be a bit cumbersome or uncomfortable, but it's not at all - having the earpiece in my ear is no problem, even on lengthy calls (there are three different sized adaptors included). Forget the more expensive gadgets, this little gadget is simply brilliant... and affordable too.
