Product Details

The CapTel 880i Captioned Phone is a traditional-style phone that shows word-for-word captions of your conversation on a large, easy-to-read 10" display. The CapTel 880i is an ideal amplified captioned phone solution for people with low vision or who have difficulty reading standard-sized captions.

It connects to both your telephone and Internet service to give you the best of both worlds: voice and captions. The captions are provided by a free service that uses the Internet connection to automatically display captions for every call, quickly and accurately. Captions are available on calls within the United States only. FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS ANYONE BUT REGISTERED USERS WITH HEARING LOSS FROM USING INTERNET PROTOCOL (IP) CAPTIONED TELEPHONES WITH THE CAPTIONS TURNED ON. IP Captioned Telephone Service may use a live operator. The operator generates captions of what the other party to the call says. These captions are then sent to your phone. There is a cost for each minute of captions generated, paid from a federally administered fund. No cost is passed on to the CapTel user for using the service.

What you should expect.

The CapTel phone transcription service is federally-funded. Once you have placed your order, a CapTel representative will contact you via email/phone to verify your information and offer installation assistance. Please ensure that the phone number and email in your order are correct. The email subject line will read CapTel Verification. YOU MUST RESPOND, OR YOUR ORDER WILL NOT SHIP. This service is currently experiencing overwhelming demand, and there could be delays in shipment.

You will have 30 days after installation to try your new CapTel phone and the captioning service. You can return the phone at any time within the 30 days for a full refund. If you decide to keep the phone, there is nothing more you need to do—just enjoy phone calls again with confidence!

Please note that due to the national health crisis, no in-person installations are being scheduled at this time. If you need installation support, you can receive “over the phone” installation support with our ISTT (Inside Sales Tech Team) department.

Great for hard of hearing & large print helps too!

Really helps especially since my mom gets lots of calls right now. Nice not to have to yell to be heard!

Works great for my Mom who could not hear us on the phone

I ordered this for my Mom who could not hear us even though we were screaming into the telephone. We had to add wifi service into her house as she did not have it, but it is so nice to be able to have a conversation again.

All that glitters is not gold

When you can't hear you have a lot of doubt when you feel something is wrong often blaming yourself for problems you might be having
