Olitech EasyTel Mobile Homephone OLT2017
Bill S.South East Queensland, QLD
Great alternative for the elderly.
My elderly mother was not comfortable with changing from her home phone to using a mobile phone. When her landline was going to be disconnected, we identified this as an alternative option.
The website was clear, ordering easy, delivery prompt and she transitioned to the new phone without any problems.
Service and support were excellent.

Peace of mind for myself and my elderly mother.
I had been looking for a suitable mobile phone for my elderly and totally non tech savvy mother, but all the while not being convinced she would be able to adjust to one, however as soon as I became aware of the 'mobile homephone' I knew it was the best chance to give my mother backup communications.
From the assistance I received from Olitech prior to purchase, the delivery of the phone (and pendant), its easy setup and subsequent help from Olitech regarding a problem with the pendant we could not be happier.
Purchased in December 2020.

Mum's new best friend
EasyTel Mobile is the best phone and telecommunication service for Mum. It's like a landline and mobile phone in one, without added nbn complications. It has taken away the stress of speaking with Mum on the phone because she can hear everything said and can use the phone with confidence. Mum had immense difficulty using ordinary mobile phones and never wants internet usage, so this phone is the perfect solution.

Great solution for the non-techies
My incapacitiated wife had no hope of using a normal mobile phone. The Oliphone seemed so similar to the office phone she used to operate that she now has no difficulty making and receiving calls. The abbreviated dialling is simple to use, and the emergency button, particularly combined with the pendant, gives us all great comfort and reassurance.

Changed Mum's Life
Having access to this telephone has changed my Mum's life. She is now able to pick up a telephone and call her friends with ease. She had lost the ability to use a mobile phone.

Great alternative to a mobile phone
We purchased this phone for an elderly relative living in a nursing home who had lost the ability to reliably charge and operate a mobile phone without inadvertently pressing the wrong buttons. No landline was offered at the facility. This phone's design is very good for this application.
Kristin was very helpful in assisting me through the process, and provides excellent support. Thank you.

Perfect phone for what it was intended for.
Much easier to use than a actual mobile phone especially for someone in residential care. Good easy way for the family to keep in touch, especially during this covid pandemic. Olitech staff was excellent and the phone was dispatched and received within a couple of days. Phone is good, easy to set up and user friendly.

This is very convenient for my elderly mother in aged care
Happy to find a landline phone which works like a mobile phone but the elderly can use. My mother is finding it very convenient in the Residential Care as a mobile phone is beyond her comprehension, and in these Covid times of no visits is a fantastic way to keep in touch. Excellent service from the company and dispatched really quickly.

Superior product exceptional customer service
I purchased the EasyTel with the Eco Plan SIM plan. What a pleasure, the SIM card arrives already inserted in the phone. Activated the SIM through customer service by email on a Friday, plugged it in and presto - fantastic. You might get a SIM plan slightly cheaper than $14 pm (compared to $60 for landline) but I can assure you the convenience of having an all in one product and the 5 star service you get is worth every extra penny.

Incredible older people and Aged Care
We purchased this phone online, I also spoke with the company prior. I was looking for a better option for an aged relative in a nursing home that was struggling to use a normal mobile phone as it was too small and didn’t have volume control hearing. The company was very helpful and caring. They posted that day. The phone is a great size and the basic functions and ease of use for older people is perfect. It has given independence back in an aged care environment without having to have a landline. Very easy to set up, just plug in, put your Simcard in and that’s all is necessary. I would highly recommend this product.

The perfect solution for access for our Mum in Aged Care .
The staff were fantastic and set up the phone for me.
It arrived in good time and it was easy for the office at the other end to show my Mother how to use it.
It gives her some independence and control.
Thanks.

I cannot rate this phone highly enough.
Saw this phone advertised and even though it sounded too good to be true I purcchased one for my husband who is in an aged care home. He was having so much trouble with a simple mobile phone and even the land line in his room. This phone is so easy to use, good for hearing impaired and sight impaired. Thank you Olitech for such a brilliant invention. You have reduced his "phone stress" to zero. Cannot rate it highly enough.

Awesome piece of equipment
Bought for my mother Just like a land line but with the agility of a mobile and the easy use functionality.
Best phone for impaired or aged people, with large numbers and a great volume range. Great value mobile plan available, certainly sticks it to the other mob.
Mum hasn't stopped using it she just loves it.
Best all round product on the market.

Mi Papa hard of heering. Papa has big shaky hard hands. He need to swipe or pres hard on buttons to work? How well wil work with and without hearing aids?
Mi apolojies for español is first language.
1 answer
he would have to be very deaf not to hear someone talking over the phone, perhaps the ringer would have to be at maximum setting but the phone is visual (lights up) when ringing. The phone appears sturdy enough for harder than normal use. It would be best to contact Olitech to find out how the contacts on the buttons work, if they operate on the same principal as buttons on a computer keyboard then there shouldn't be a problem.
