Hello,

I have one of these phones and I've sent one to my friend in USA so we can speak for free. She has been trying to install the software but on the section where you have to put the postcode it will only accept a UK one. She's been trying to input her zip code but it won't accept it. Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks

I'd either try say, getting her to put in your postcode instead or if that doesn't work phone tesco and ask them what might be the answer.

Hi,

I've telephoned Tesco and they have told me to tell her to register online. But as far as I can see if she registers online how is she going to get the software to use the phone on her pc?

I've had a look around and have found a few others with the same problems. Most have opted to use SKYPE instead. Have you considered this? It can be used at the PC using mic and speakers, or you can now get a handset which looks like a normal phone. A bit drastic i know but it's a good piece of kit by all accounts. - and its free!
This company lets you call landlines AND mobiles in the USA for 0.5p per min, billed straight to your debit/credit card. There's a few things for consider!

Once registered online you can download the software from the website.

You don't need the CD at all.
