Does anyone know whether BT cordless phones work in Australia? (eg Synergy 3305 one main with two extensions)
Can anyone recommend a good garage in Adelaide for buying a new or nearly new Toyota or Ford.
Cheers

British phones have a different wall fitting from the Oz phones but the British phone will work if you use a wall adapter. It should be noted that unless your phone is approved for use in Oz then it is illegal to fit them onto the phone network. This is true for modems, routers etc. as well.

If you are going to use an adapter get it in the UK as that type of thing is hard to come by in Oz. It is the same fitting for American phones.

Can't help you with the garage - wrong side of the country!

Hi Paddy
Thanks for this. When you say different wall fitting do you mean the socket? Do you know how I can find out whether it is approved or not as I don't want to do anything illegal.
Thanks

Yes, in they same way that it is illegal to attach a non-uk phone to a uk phone system, either though they are made in the same factory and you can buy adapters in the UK, and most people will do it.

Australia pretty strict on rules, and of course union involvement. i.e. You are not permitted to change a plug in QLD, but everyone does.

Oz plugs don't have fuses, so is the circuit that trips rather than the plug, and house circuits are 10amp rather than 13amps, so some UK fast boil kettles etc can trip them out.
