Is it really necessary to have more than one cell phone? I personally love cell phone and one is good enough for me to have. I know some people that has more than one cell phone, Why they do that? Is it really necessary?

Hi buckskinlady, I see that you are newbie in here. Welcome to the world of mylot. What you said is right and true. One cellphone can do the same with having more than one cellphone. Some just like to have separate phone personal and business use so they need more than one.It doesnt matter anyways ,as long as they can handle it, why not. Thanks for sharing. Happy mylotting.

I know few contractors that have 2 cell. phones, one for business & one for personal use... I know others that do similiar things, have personal & work or business phone... Not everybody but I do understand it those cases... People give out work cell. phone numbers to their customers, business contacts & so forth... I know some vendor trainers & they carry 2 cell. phones, one that work provides them with & personal ones... Some companies frown upon their people using business phones to make personal calls... And vise versa, they feel that why should they use personal phone for work?... I'm sure everyone who has 2 or more phones have their reasons, I only have one & I use it for all my calls, personal & work... On my days off when I don't wanna be bothered with work, I just let calls to go to my voice mail & I check it once every 2 hours or so & make calls I feel that are important...

well some cant do with only one cellphone, they need two or more cellphone for they assign their callers, I guess it depends on the person needs but still i would want one cellphone only for less expenses. Thanks for responding.

I have three cellphones. One is for official use, another is for friends and family and another is for special people more like a dedicated line or phone. Yes, I find it necessary to have more than one cellphone. first, I don't use my official phone for my personal calls or messages. Second, I like to have a special phone with many features which are more useful to conversations with friends and family and of course a special phone for special purposes.

Wow nice to here like that, I think you have plenty of cash to handle three phone at the same time. Phone can be very expensive if you use it frequently especially in calls. Anyways phone is neccessary now a days , you can more than one if you like as long you affort it. Thanks for your comment. Happy posting.

For some reasons people do this out of necessity. One is because there are still spots where a particular provider dominates. Therefore, it is compulsory to use their service. This reason of course is for people on-the-go. For ordinary people, I think it is more on business reasons(you know,"real business or monkey business" alike).lol

I will think of real business to be safe, for it can create real trouble if it is the other way around like you said monkey business, lol. Thanks for responding.

I would suspect that they bought their first phone on contact, and when that ran out, they kept it as a prepaid phone, but they found a better one and put that on contact as well. They also may have had to buy a cheap prepaid phone, but then they saved enough money to be a better cellphone. I would also suspect that the first phone they gave to their wife or son or daughter, but they paid for the bill so in essence the ownership would be that the bills came to them but they no longer had possession of the first cellphone.

I would suspect that too. I doubt he is hiding something for others so no one knows the other cellphone number he got. Thanks for responding.

Is it necessary? Are they really so busy all the time so that they need one more cellphone? Don't they want some spare time without any bothering calls? One cellphone will be good enough for me. It's not necessary for me to have one more cellphone. It just wastes money. I love China

Hi Margarit!When I first saw those people with more than one cell phone,I thought that they will be some business people.But its not so,these days I find a lot of youngsters having more than one cell phone.They use it talk with friends,especially their opposite gender.But a few business people will be having more than a cell phone as they will be traveling often from place to place.For a normal person a single phone will do.Why one will waste money in loading all the phones at the beginning of the month.Thats not economical.Thank you.Good Luck to you.Happy mylotting

You are right. We should be more practical today for everything is going up. the prices of the basic commodities is high, fuel is high, and so forth. Be more economical as you said . Thanks for responding.

I know several people that have more than 1 cell phone. They have a phone for personal use and then have another phone for business use. I think it makes it easier for them because if they are on an important business call, they do not have to worry about someone personal calling and disturbing them. Plus, they can turn the business phone off and not have to worry about getting calls when they are not working. Meanwhile, they have the other cell phone for personal calls. That way they are keeping personal and business seperate. I only have 1 phone and it is more than enough for me, but I can understand why some people have more than 1.

Okay, some needs more than one cellphone , separate from personal and business use. But still you can be reach or be contacted with one cell phone only. Thanks for your comment.

Okay, that is their prerogative, but i think it is useless for have more than one cellphone for it just add to your expenses. and it is not convinient to carry all the time. Thanks for responding
