Do you still have a land line?

Despite having mobile phone, we still have a landline basically for my internet connection and it's another cheaper option for local calls. You just have to pay for the fixed monthly fee and you could make local call for free no matter how long and how many calls you make. It's true that wireless has gone a long way because for the convenience it makes that you could take your mobile phones anywhere you are, but we still keep our landline.

Hello gitfiddleplayer. We do still have a land line at my house. Although we have considered cancelling it, my husband has many conference calls in his work and feels we must have a land line. I do think the time is coming when people will omit their "home phones." I still feel that I can hear the other person more clearly on a land line than on my cell phone. The sound clarity just seems better to me. PearlGrace

Along with my internet connection, eevn land line is provided and tis will be more usefu when maing calls to land line numbers as it comes cheaper than making calls to landline through a mobile phone isnt it? cell phones has otehr advantages like sms which is absent in land phones

We still have our land line phone for a couple of reasons. First off, our cell phones don't work at home due to living too far out in the country and in a bad signal area. Second, we get our DSL internet through the local phone company and would have to pay them even if we tried say Vonage, so I really can't see any reason to not have the land line.

We still have a land line. We've got cell phones and house phone. Mainly the only reason we still have land line is because thats where our internet connection comes from. We dont do a whole lot of talking on the house phone, mainly on cell phones.

I still have a land line because my cell phone is for work only. My land line is for eveything else.

Though every member of my family has our own cellphone we still have never cancelled our regular land line phone. This is because my husband’s elder sister is reluctant to use cellphone. I think she might have the phobia of using this device.

I have to have a landline for my dsl but just have a basic pkg. with unlimited local calling. I sometimes use the landline to make local calls and use my cell for the long-distance calls or to call my hubby since it's free to call each other.

We have both cell phones and a land line. Cell phones are WAY too expensive to be without a land line. We pay almost twice as much for a limited amount of time as we do for unlimited amount of time.

i hav a landline but its not working bcoz i havnt paid the bill therz no use of land line every one hav a mobile in my hom so we dint pay the bill

Yes I do. It's more for receiving calls rather than dialing out. It's cheaper for my in-laws and parents to dial the land line instead of my cell phone. It costs more than double to dial a Swiss cell than it is to dial the land line so yeah...

I have only cellphones one is with my wife & another cell phone is with me. I don't have any land line phone & no.

Hey yes we do as I live with my parents at the moment and they do not really want to learn how to use a cell phone I do not think but I personally swear by cell phones I have 2 of them as I text so much all though one is Telecom and the other is Vodafone.

we still have our land line. aside from my cellphone. it's much cheaper to use the land line in calling other people than using the cellphone. we just used cellphone for calling others if they are outside their house and it's very urgent. i always like to have a home phone so that i can check how my parents are doing each day when i am not around (in the office/school), they're getting old and home phone is the easiest way to communicate with them.

My husband and I did away with the land line a long time ago. It was too expensive. When it is long distance to call out of town six miles away it is time to start looking for something else. We did and now we have cell phones and no land line and it is a lot cheaper this way.

yup we still do coz if we wanna chat for a long time, then we use the landline. and it is required if you apply for credit cards or any billing plans.

yes,we still do.i'd love to switch it over,but it would be an absolute nightmare having to notify all mom's relatives,doctors and the navy. the navy in particular would be a nightmare,because anytime you change anything,you have to fill it out in triplicate,then they lose 2 and misplace the third

I have a land line. It is required to have a dial up connection. If i wish to access the internet thats all that is currently available for my land location. If i could get high speed my land line would be gone so fast.

I still have a land line and that is because I am the only person in the house that has a contract phone, everyone else is pay as you go and it costs less to make calls from a landline than it is to make calls from a mobile phone, so basically it is for financial purposes. There is also the issue that forms make you fill in house numbers compulsory some times and if you didn't have one then you wouldn't be able to fill in the form.

I still do. I need it to call other relatives, friends and businesses. If I'm gonna use my cell to call them, Boy, my husband would have a fit when he sees the billing statement.! It's much cheaper to call using the landline, besides, some people are just at their houses, so why not call them thru their landlines as well. Exception would be, if I'm out and I can't see any other available pay phones, I have no other choice but to use my cell. Only if it's very important or an emergency..Cell phone charges here are so high, even text messages are the same. So, why not use the landline if you can..
