The ability to record your phone conversations can provide you with several advantages:
- The phone conversation could assist you in providing information for legal matters (Court, police, etc.). Please refer to the Blog: Phone Recording Legality.
- If the caller provides technical information (A doctor, lab tech., lawyer, etc.) that should be saved and will probably be referred to at a later date.
- The caller provides you information such as street directions, phone numbers, etc. that you might refer to in the future.
- Many recording devices provide you with not only the recorded information but with time, date, duration, etc. These devices usually make it very convenient when you need to find a conversation in the future.
- Many verbal agreements take place on the phone and therefore a recording can provide a binding contract.
- Many times parents must reluctantly utilize recorded phone conversation to protect their children. The legality of this is debatable but deemed necessary by parents sometimes.
- Backup and proof of phone order entry for a business.
- If you use your phone answering machine when you’re not available then your phone recorder will also capture the call which would provide you with a long term archive and the ability to listen to the messages in a more convenient manner.
- Phone recordings can be referred to in situations in which it is important for the parties at a later date to establish what was really said: “I borrowed from you ???”, “I borrowed your car and ???”, “I am responsible for ???”, “It was an accident but ???”, etc.
- The elderly and people with memory loss can utilize phone recordings to refresh their memory if needed.
- The recording of all calls provides a log that might need to be referred to such as when the phone bill arrives with calls that are to those 866 numbers or wanting to know who made that 2 hour call to Paris.
