AFAIK, all others such as Sky &amp; Vodafone only provide an analogue&nbsp; ATA, same as the green socket on the SH2.</P><P>Even on the Fritzbox, it would only function as a basic GAP handset, so no contacts or other features.</P> Thu, 05 Jun 2025 15:30:32 GMT https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435419#M103760 Anonymous 2025-06-05T15:30:32Z https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435420#M103761 Thanks, my mums being forced to changeover to DV soon so at least can give them to her if I switch networks Thu, 05 Jun 2025 15:35:06 GMT https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435420#M103761 ST7 2025-06-05T15:35:06Z https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435456#M103762 <BLOCKQUOTE><HR />@Anonymous wrote:<BR /> <P>Free <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:">🤣</span></P> <P>Not going to happen mate.</P> <HR /></BLOCKQUOTE> <P>Well, it <EM>did</EM> happen when the DV roll out began, which I suspect is why the question said 'gave' rather than 'give'.</P> Thu, 05 Jun 2025 18:11:16 GMT https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435456#M103762 pottyperson 2025-06-05T18:11:16Z https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435457#M103763 Yes they gave a couple free , guess to encourage people to switch, now they just give adapters Thu, 05 Jun 2025 18:22:15 GMT https://community.bt.com/t5/Home-phone-including-Digital/Can-the-DV-handsets-BT-gave-out-free-be-used-with-any-other/m-p/2435457#M103763 ST7 2025-06-05T18:22:15Z
