Do you have a land line?

Question

Do you have a land line in your house? I don't; it's been over 4 years since I heard a phone ring at home and I do not miss it one bit! Instead I have to listen really closely for my phone to vibrate! lol

Answer 1

Yes i have a land line - wish I didnt though :)

Answer 2

I have one because I'm not confident enough in cell phone service in case of an emergency.

I'd like to be able to dial 911 and have them know where I am.

With cell phones they don't seem to know all the time, and even when they do it seems to take longer.

Plus we use it for the fax machine and we used to have DSL internet.

Answer 3

Yes, but i get free service from the co. I retired from. I also have DSL on this line. To top it off, have 2 cell lines.

Answer 4

I tried twice getting rid of land line phones. Those 2 times I must have picked the idiot month for calls to Social security, Comcast, and a few other places that keep you on hold...as your minutes keep running. I might be able to do it soon with a cheap plan (so far) from t-Mobile. Their favorite 5 seems to fit the bill. I'll soon know. In fact it might make sense picking an 800# as one of my favorite 5.

Answer 5

Yeah, I have one with three phones. We have a debate on whether we need a land line.

Answer 6

Yup.  I prefer the landline actually.

Answer 7

I have a land line simply for the answering machine. Not all cell phones have GPS, but police can triangulate your position by monitoring your signal from the microwave towers. Computers do it in a matter of moments.

Answer 8

I have a land line and I absolutely hate it!!!

My least favorite bill to pay each month.

We have cell phones and good cell phone coverage but my wife still wants the landline.

Why I dont know but . . . . .
