    How many of you have and use a landline these days?

    I was just filling in an online form and it just rejected my landline number - It wanted a mobile or it just wouldn't work - Then I was watching some reality shit program on TV and the police asked some 14 year old girl for her mobile number - They got really pissed when she told them she didn't have one and accused her of lying...

    I feel so old.....

              I have a landline but I don't know why. When we moved 2 years ago we had it installed but I never use it, and never give the number out. Every time it rings, its just stupid sales calls. I'm really thinking about just closing it.

                          We have to have a landline here by the beach the steep hills and cliff here block all signals inland to the cell tower from within the house. If I go outside and walk a bit I get a signal and sometime a bar indoors.

                                  Im paying about $10/mo for a landline thats been bundled with my interwebs and the only calls I get on it are from the ISP asking me if I like the service.

                                          Sorry, no it was her mobile - They just assumed every 14 year old had one...

                                                  My mother and grandmother still have landlines. I think that is all the family and friends that I know still have one. I have the internet phone from the Cable company, but only because their internet package comes with it. I'd nix it if it was possible. Don't think I have the phone plugged in though.

                                                      what's the point anymore?

                                                      haven't ever needed one and even some alarm systems now don't require landlines.

                                                          always had landlines & for the past 2 years only used skype, no mobile or landline. Now have another mobile.

                                                          Life is so much more peaceful without a mobile

                                                                                                              I have a bluetooth speaker/mic so the moble phone is not right next to my ear usually. I mean one of the wireless routers is in the same room anyway -- so I'm doomed

                                                                                                                                      Also cell towers have huge battery banks with back up generators to keep them going. It's way more likely you would have cell coverage rather than land line.

Every month when I pay the bill I tell myself that I'm going to cancel it, then I forget until I pay the bill the next month. I have to send about 3 faxes a year with it. Nobody ever answers it cuz it's always just salesmen.

I pay about $53 a month for it. Every month when I pay the bill I tell myself that I'm going to cancel it, then I forget until I pay the bill the next month. I have to send about 3 faxes a year with it. Nobody ever answers it cuz it's always just salesmen.

So in fact, most people call by internet.

Was basically just a box full of sales call spam anyway so should have killed it sooner.
