BT 6500
Fed up with sales calls interrupting you at home? The new BT6500 brings you unique functionality to block nuisance or unwanted calls. It's call management feature puts you back in control, by enabling you to choose the calls you want to take and those you want to block.
(You must subscribe to a Caller Display service from your network provider for the block nuisance calls feature to work. Charges may apply.)
Block Nuisance Calls
With the BT 6500 you can choose the type of calls you want to block. For example International and Withheld numbers can be blocked, which account for a large proportion of unwanted sales calls. Calls still go through to the answer machine, so if it's someone you want to hear from they can still leave a message. Alternatively if you there are specific numbers you want to block, you can block up to 10 numbers from getting through.
Full of features that are simple to use
-Do Not Disturb For those times when you just want some peace and quiet, switch Do Not Disturb so that your phone won't ring or light up. If you want key friends and family to still get through they can do, by tagging them as VIPs in your address book

Reviewed by Anonymous Review Posted 15/02/2013
We bought these because we could block nuisance calls which they do. The problem with them is their build quality,they have fat handsets, which produce poor speech. We returned them because the back light would not work,and the answer phone was SO distorted that we were unable to understand some phone messages. We didn't seem to get the person calling on screen either, which could have been a fault in with the back light. Found the returns process very easy, when we requested to return the items,they went the next day. 5 stars for that,although courier turned up at 7.45am we thought that was excellent.

they're going back!
Reviewed by Andrea. Review Posted 20/03/2013
These finally arrived last week after waiting for new stock. Some of the features (like caller display) that we subscribe to don't work on the 6500 because we use a ASDL filter/splitter for our broadband router and this interferes with the sensitivity, so it's useless for us. The other thing they don't mention is to do with the call barring. We got it specifically for the international call barring, which drives us insane. Problem being that it then blocks all international callers, including any family you may have abroad and family members calling home when they are on holiday - none of these callers will then be able to get through. Very cheap handsets, don't feel great for apparent new technology. Overall not impressed and we are going back to our 7 year old handsets - they work much better!
