Good to know

Probably the most difficult thing about the OwnFone is ordering it, because you need to make choices at that point about the numbers you want to be included on it.
All the visual information is printed on the phone itself, so you won't be able to make changes once it arrives.
If you subsequently want to change a contact, there's a fee of £10 to have the phone reprinted, but numbers can be changed free of charge by contacting OwnFone customer service.
You must take out a mobile contract with Ownfone
