Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red)









Product Description

Cell phones today have become more difficult to use, customer service has become less welcoming, and useful services are harder to come by. Jitterbug offers a variety of help services that are easy to set-up and even easier to use. We've made it simple to do things like check the weather, manage your calendar or even call a Live Nurse with health questions- all without having to download an "app" or pay for "megabyte" charges.

5Jitterbug is Just
By Linda Hanson
I ordered the Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red) for my Mom. She absolutely does not know how to use anything...cell phone, cd player, computer. This phone is perfect for her. All she has to do is open it, arrow up or down to the person she wants to call, and push call. She loves it. The phone came in perfect condition at a much, much lower price than if purchased from a retail store in person. It is easily set up with easy to read instructions and easily accessible "real people help" if you need to call.Anyone technologically challenged who wants a cell phone just for calling, or wants one for a loved one in the same situation should seriously consider Jitterbug. Consumer Cellular has a great deal, but their service is spotty, and there were numerous dead spots when using their phone. Jitterbug has no problems. I was a skeptic, but this phone has proven me wrong.

4Great for ease of use and Seniors
By Andee
I bought for my Aunt who is in her 80's, it is her first cellphone. She loves the phone although it is a little bigger than I thought it would be. The Jitterbug people are so nice and are available 24/7. I was able to completely program all the numbers on my computer for her on her phone.The phone has a speaker button and is loud so that's good. There is no 911 button. She would have to dial 911 then hit send. Not sure if that would present a problem in an emergency. The gray button on the outside should be removed it is just to change the volume but she accidently hits it sometimes. It should really be on the side like a regular cellphone.All in all, definitely great to have instead of/or with an emergency button.

1Not Good.
By C. Sahu
I got this phone for my brother, who's an invalid. Luckily, I decided to charge and activate the phone before giving it to him.When I received the Jitterbug, I plugged it in to charge it. After a few hours the screen said, "Charge completed." So I unplugged and called GreatCalls to have the phone activated.The operator picked up in about a minute. (Good.) But already I could tell the reception was poor - I couldn't hear every other word or so. The operator told me it was because I hadn't charge the battery long enough - even though the screen said, "Charge complete," I should charge it for 12 hours. (I thought he sounded a little irritable, but maybe that was my imagination. He did, after all, have to repeat himself because of the bad connection.)So I plugged the phone back into the charger. The next day, after more than 12 hours of charging, when I again called GreatCalls to activate the phone, it continued to crackle and then lost the call altogether.I called GreatCalls back because, even though I was pretty sure at this point that the phone needed to be returned, I wanted to check if they had any more words of wisdom. Once again, the phone reception was breaking up - both for me and for the operator. So she took my other cell phone number and called me there. I explained everything I've written above but the lady said, "Oh, I'm sure the phone is fine. I think the problem is on my end. Let me help you activate the phone."I pointed out that she was the third operator I had spoken to and that, last time, the phone had dropped the call altogether. She continued to insist that the phone was fine: "It's my headset. There's something wrong with it."I pointed out that she was talking to me just fine with her headset on my other cell phone! She didn't have an argument for that but still wanted to activate the Jitterbug!!I said, "No thanks, I don't want to activate." (I do have to admit that she was consistently polite.)So I'm returning the Jitterbug and not getting another one. If it were just a problem with the phone itself, I would probably have had it exchanged for another Jitterbug. The Jitterbug phone is actually made by Samsung and the cell tower service is through Verizon. That's how my own cell phone is and I've had no real problems with it.But I really felt that the operators just want to make the sale and don't care about what problems the customer might have afterwards. I mean, if I had given this phone directly to my brother, who's never had a cell phone, he might have believed what the nice lady said and let her activate it. Then, in an emergency, he wouldn't have been able to use it. Or, at some point, I would have asked my brother how the phone was working, and he'd have admitted he didn't use it because he couldn't hear, and I'd have had to return the phone anyway, after having paid for monthly service fee for who knows how long?Also, the first operator was just stringing me along, I think, by telling me the phone needed to be charged 12 hours. Why would incomplete charging cause the transmission to crackle? Neither operator admitted that there might be something wrong with the phone.And we live in Southern California, well within Verizon service territory, so it couldn't have been a problem with that.
