Ok need some advice regarding the mk1 version wife.

Does anyone know of a way that a Blackberry mobile phone can record in call conversations when the phone is obviously in use? Evidence issues required regarding master570 and little miss570.

Many thanks and greatly appreciated.

Shall also try the NAAFI for a wider audience and possible response but do not expect too many sensible replies their, but worth a shot

Recording a telephone conversation without informing the other party is a breach of the telecoms licence (yes, you have a licence), so would leave you open to civil action by the other party or OFTEL.
However, it isn't illegal unless you wish to disclose it to a third party, which would include a solicitor. So it's fairly pointless.

Just tell her you're recording it. She won't believe you anyway.

And use a digital recorder.

How is it illegal? Companies do it all the time, answering machines do it all the time....ok not a two way conversation ;). As long as one party in the conversation knows the conversation is being recorded it isn't illegal.

And a proud grammar nazi too.

How about using 'there' next time?

To cover yourlself legally you have to inform the party that their call will be recorded, hence advisory you always get when ringing a call centre (your call may be recorded for training purposes).
Most phones can record a call while in call.. Look for the options while you're on the phone. Experiment while your calling your answerphone or something

That was my understanding as well. Maybe illegal because it might constitute a breach of contract?

Also bear in mind that if you tell her you are recording it, and she agrees to you recording it, she can also request a copy of the recording, or a written transcript of it.

If you have access to the handset then their is software that allows you to passively receive any incoming/outgoing calls and texts made on another handset. These are re-directed from the host handset to yours and is one way traffic only i.e. you can only listen and not send.

What you need my insecure friend is something similar to this little baby for the Blackberry. Im sure if you do some googling you will find something that will do the job but be prepared to spend a few quid.
