My sister and I started saying "over" after completing a statement to avoid this, but that was silly and annoying. I find it much more comfortable to just use my bluetooth ear-phone. So I had to disconnect my bluetooth feature after setting it all up. I DID enjoy being able to see who was calling on the radio screen and being able to answer wthe call with the button, but the other problems I was unable to overlook. By the way I also felt I had to yell to be heard.
I have some little Nokia flip phone and it transfers immediately to the phone when I turn off the car...pairing was also very easy once I turned the bluetooth on the phone on. No problem with hearing, either. The only thing I dislike is the ringer in the car itself. It is very annoying. Wish it could be changed...if I have the radio on I get a hint as it goes off before the ring. Once in a while I will hear my phone ring in my purse (even in the backseat) before the car rings so it is not quite so startling.
