Do you still have a home phone?

[wetcat007]

I haven't had a home line for a while since it never got used simply use the cell phone everywhere, anyone else rid themselves of the extra expense?

 

[mpitts]

I have one only because my home security system relies on it.

 

[FoBoT]

cell only, we dropped VoIP back in August or Sept.

4 people, 3 phones, two plans, both on T-Mobile

the nearest T-Mobile tower is close enough we get full bars in the upstairs of our house and it only drops one bar in the basement, so we have never dropped a call in our house

Don't think I'll ever give up the quality of my landline.

 

[Linflas]

I have not found cell phones reliable enough to give up land line service.

I only have a land line because my DSL requires one, but I never use it.

Only Cell Phone

 

[Amused]

I have VOIP so I can send and recieve faxes and so DirecTV can call home and spy on me. I rarely use it for calls.

 

[FoBoT]

i do have fake VoIP to trick my Dish box
i got a USB box that is supposed to allow me to use my normal telephone with Skype, it does give me a dial tone, but it won't dial correctly

so i fed it back into the house line so the Dish box gets a dial tone, it isn't smart enough to realize it never actually connects to dish

at least i don't get the nag screen anymore

I only get 3 bars and sometimes none in our neighborhood because it's in a valley, so I keep Sunrocket $9.99 plan for emergencies. Also we use it when we have to sign up for something or give out a number to someone temporarily. Apply for a re-fi or something and they sell your information, suddenly 30 salespeople are calling night and day, ban the numbers and they disappear.
Plus we use the intercom function on the phones extensively.

I like hardline. So I am keeping my landline.

 

[Krazy4Real]

I only have my cell phone.

 

[RossMAN]

Nope.

Cell phones + VOIP

 

[Spacehead]

I need a landline for my dial-up service 🙁

I've borrowed my parents cell & the reliability is iffy at my house.

 

[SonnyDaze]

Landline and cell. Use the landline and answering machine for telemarketers and people I don't generally want to deal with.

 

[thegimp03]

Nope...just cell.

grrr...lately Tmobile has been dropping my calls like crazy, even in my apartment where I get full bars. I do not know what the problem is. I thought it was just my phone, my gf has been having the same problem. I may have to start bugging Tmobile soon.

Only cell phone.. no need for anything else.
