Do you still have a land line phone at home?
« on: October 18, 2015, 04:33:25 am »
We use to have a land line phone at home, but we never used it. It was nice to have it just in case our mobile phones had issues, but we eventually got rid of the phone for now.

I have a VOIP phone with Vonage, because the cell phones are not that reliable and need charging all the time.

It took awhile but we finally eliminated our land line.  Our cell phones are reliable and it just seemed an unnecessary expense.  We were looking to eliminate some expenses and that was the first one.  Haven't had any issues not having a landline.

We have both cell and landline. We really need the landline as our security system is hooked to the landline number.

Sure do.  When you've got a 93 year old Mother who has no knowledge of electronics, you need one.

Yes I have a land line phone. If I work at home more I won't need a cell phone. The landline is cheaper than my cell.

We do not have a landline. too me it was just another bill.  I like having the cell phone because it dose not mat matter where I am I will get my phone calls. My stepfather is not in the best of health and I like the idea of always being able to be in contact with him. He has finally learned how to use the simple cell phone that is when he remembers to charge it and carry it with him. He has very few phone numbers on it. Just my brother, sister, and a few close friends on it. But it has a red button he knows to push if he needs it.
