I wonder why lots of my friends are always changing their cellphone numbers.They are always fun of doing this.For me it's not good,because it can cause problem sometimes in contacting that person when the time of emergency or you have something to tell a very important thing.
I had my number for almost five years now,I am not fun of changing cellphone numbers,but I am not giving my personal number also to anyone I don't know.How about you,are you fun of changing you cellphone number?How often and what is your reason,why you do it? Can you share it here?Thanks!

I have never changed numbers. I have had it for more than ten years now. It's such a hassle to text all your friends and clients about your new number so I just stick with my old number.

Yes,me too I find it very hassle to text all your contacts to save you new number again.Thats why it's good to stick on the old number we are using.

I got my first cell phone during the 90s and I have only changed it once, since I moved to another country. So no, I don't really see the point in changing the number often!

That's better puccagirl,in that your friends and some important people you are contacting with will not be confused which number to call or text.

I'm with you I don't like changing my cell phone number. I would have to go through the hassle of making sure everyone had my new number. The only times I've ever switched cell phone numbers is when I got a new phone and it was with a different company. I think I will just stick with my current cell phone company just so I can keep my number, haha.
Sometimes people change their numbers though because of prank callers, or somebody who is harassing them. This is why my mom changed her number. We also changed our old number because it was one number off from being the same as a pizza place, so people kept calling us by mistake to order pizza.

Network company sometimes giving some numbers who are already used by other people,thats why maybe you were given a pizza haus number.I had so many callers also but I usually disregard them. Sometimes I receive also text messages from unknown people,I just erased and don't reply at all.
