I never switch off my mobile phone, even during nights.
I do not even put it in silent mode during nights, just in case some emergency call might come up during night.
Do you switch off your mobile phone during night or put it in silent mode or leave as it is, just as I do?

Well I do swtich off my mobile phone everynight, because there are many local clients who also calling in nights, I mean after working hours too, so to avoid disturb from my clients i do switch off my cell after 10:00pm night. I feel mobile is not everything for life, there is life beyond the mobile phones.

I often switch off my mobile phone in the night, sometimes i maybe forget to switch off it, then I will receive some strange calls, but when I begin to receive it, it suddently rings off after only one ring.
I often turn off my mobile phone, when I don't want to receive someone's calls, even in the day.
Sometimes i will miss some important calls, then I will be angry with those people that I don't want to receive calls.

I usually switch off my mobile phone after 12:30am as my son who is working in out station used to call me at or before half past twelve in the late night. After that I will switch off my cell phone straight away because I don’t want to be disturbed when I’m sleeping. Secondly my mobile phone battery could last longer as well. Normally I will switch it on at about eight o’clock in the following morning. I don’t have to worry for missing any urgent calls as we have our house telephone.

I will stay at home,so u can understand from it that i cant get any calls.I am not employer,so i dont switch it off during nights.I think some people keep their phones in silent mode,vibration mode in order not to disturb from their sleep.But i think it is bad to keep their cells in switch off/silent mode,as no one calls u for fun sake,if it is urgent only they call.Then why people are doing like this i cant understand

I always leave my cell phone on unless it is charging...That way if I'm out and people can't reach me and it's an emergency they can get ahold of me or if I'm downstairs doing laundry and I can't make it to my house phone and it's important they can call my cell...

No, I never switch off my mobile phone even during nights. It is always in its average or highest level of volume just in case of emergency.

I never turn off my cell phone.I do not even put it in silent mode during nights, just in case some emergency call might come up during night. Typically the ringer volume is always on, except for during the time I am working during the day, at that time I have it set to vibrate so that it is not going off while I am on the phone with clients. Other than that though, my phone is always turned on and the volume is always turned up
