Title: Pay phones
Post by: melodylogan45 on January 05, 2016, 04:53:35 pm
Do you miss using pay phones, it cost us less than a cell phone, but they were inconvenient. We had to get out of the car and find a location that had a pay phone. lol

That is so funny because my daughter was in Europe last week and in London she posted a picture on facebook of a phone booth. All I could think about Superman, and he has no place to get his cape on.

I think cell phones are mobile phone booths

I still see payphones now and there, but not a lot as before... In the Penn Station where I use to commute to college they set up a commuter charging booth. It has a lot of different types of micro usb that can be plugged into a smartphone

I don't miss them to be honest but sometimes I wish there was one because cell phones sometimes do fail and if you can't get that important call out when you need to then your out of luck.

I agree with this post. What will we all do without our pay phones and our landlines if the cell towers are damaged or destroyed or vandalized.  :sweat:

Anything could happen. It's nice to have a backup for emergencies.

everytime I see a  phonebooth where it used to be, all is there is the frame. no phone or nothing. I used to use a payphone for my own personal phone. as a landline, I think I have one but I dont use it. it was part of the internet package.

I don't miss payphones.  I never used them because you never knew who has come before you to use to use them.  Just think about the germs etc....

I don't know where any pay phones are any more.  They all seem to have been removed.
