Jitterbug Phone

A Jitterbug phone is unlike other cell phones available from other providers. A jitterbug phone is truly unique for a good reason - it’s simplicity. The targeted group for Jitterbug phone plans are senior citizens and simplicity seekers that have pretty specific ease of use requirements. Regarding the convenience, it is a very important fact that Jitterbug phones are large and simple and they act more like a regular phone rather than a cell phone. This is a very important feature for senior citizens and simplicity seekers alike.

The current trend of cell phones getting smaller in size and their functions and features expanding is not always beneficial to older individuals that find those kinds of cell phones very hard to operate. That is the reason why Jitterbug has only two buttons "Yes" and "No" on these cell phones and a 10 digit keypad that makes them very easy to operate. The buttons are bright and big, the volume is crystal clear and the text that appears on the screen is very easy to see. These phones also come with live nurse access that is available for an additional 4 dollars a month and 24 hour live operator assistance for placing calls or adding contacts to a users personalized phone list.

Jitterbug phones come with flexible monthly payment plans that can be switched at any time at no additional cost. Basic monthly service plan starts as low as $14.99 a month for 50 minutes. However, there is the initial $147 cost for the phone. At first, some customers are unhappy about this but most of them find that they get exactly what they need for the price. Why use cheaper cell phone providers if they do not provide practical solutions for people with special needs?

The two types of the Jitterbug phones that are available are the Jitterbug Dial and the Jitterbug J. The second one of the two is the newer model that actually makes up for all disadvantages that the Jitterbug Dial has. The absence of Bluetooth and messaging support were the biggest flops for Jitterbug Dial. Maybe the phone user does not want to use texting on a daily basis, but what if someone wants to send them a quick text message? The fact that they have text messaging, even if they do not plan to use it, makes it much better for everyone.

The new features that have improved the overall functionality of Jitterbug cell phones, as we mentioned before are the addition of Bluetooth and SMS text capabilities. Also, as the new Jitterbug J model was released, the exclusive health tip service of a live nurse became available. Additionally, some of the previously existing services have also been significantly improved such as improvement in coverage and better customer service. In the end, customer's satisfaction is guaranteed by a 30 day or 30 minute talk time return policy of Jitterbug cell phones, whichever comes first.  That shows a lot of confidence in their products.
