Members' experiences

1. HEARING AID WITH MOBILE PHONE
   1. Our member APUMP 000003 has a hearing aid. It works fine with his analogue mobile 'phone, but any digital (GSM) phone causes terrible interference.
   2. Another hearing aid incident.
2. DIGITAL PHONE DID NOT WORK IN MEMBER'S OWN HOME
   1. Our member APUMP 000002 wanted a smaller 'phone. He went to the 'phone shop and was "switch-sold" out of his analogue phone into a digital. When he got home, he discovered that the new phone would not work inside the house, even though it worked at the front gate.

      That was no problem. All that APUMP 000002 has to do is sit down at the front gate whenever he's expecting a call on his new digital mobile! When the weather turned cold, he joined APUMP and we persuaded the phone company to let him go back to an analogue 'phone contract, and we told him where he could buy a TINY analogue phone for less than $100 (it was second-hand but as good as new).
