Anyone still use a home phone? - GoFuckYourself.com

What's the point now a days?

Big_Red · 04-16-2007, 09:18 PM

heck no.

JasonB · 04-16-2007, 09:22 PM

no way. i havent in prob 3 years. i barely even use my vonage phn nowdays

Randyyy · 04-16-2007, 09:23 PM

hah what a joke

AdPatron · 04-16-2007, 09:24 PM

Is that what they call a land line? They still have those?

Tempest · 04-16-2007, 09:33 PM

Yep.. Where I live (small town) the cell reception sucks and given how often the storms take out the power, it's the only way I can make calls during that time (like to find out when they're going to fix the problem).

jonesonyou · 04-16-2007, 09:34 PM

I still use my home phone... It doesn't get all hot when I talk on it for long periods of time.

Mr Pheer · 04-16-2007, 09:36 PM

got rid of mine over three years ago

Sly · 04-16-2007, 09:36 PM

Yep. I don't have a cell. :-)

JP513 · 04-16-2007, 09:38 PM

I do, but it's not a traditional line; it's VoIP. I find it useful to have another calling option for 3 reasons:

1. My cell phone (Sprint) doesn't always get great service.

2. VoIP direct international dialing rates are much cheaper than cell phone international plans, especially to foreign cell/mobile numbers. I don't like jumping through calling card hoops. Calling cards suck!

3. 3rd benefit is the speaker phone is better quality

for when you have to call places that require u to hold, which I hate!

I also have a USA cell and a foreign tri-band for travel, but even though it's not my main phone contact anymore, a land line still has its place.

If you think you're too cool to use a land line:

Another good point!

[ Nate ] · 04-16-2007, 09:45 PM

I agree home phones are more dependable, unfortunately you have to be home to use them...

DWB · 04-16-2007, 09:53 PM

I stopped using the phone about 4 years ago. Now I only e-mail, IM and answer to smoke signals in the sky.

LiveDose · 04-16-2007, 10:04 PM

Home and business still on landlines. When cell phone techology is perfected (especially indoors) I'll drop my landlines. Nothing more annoying than dropped calls and dead air...

Neither does my bluetooth earpice

I haven't had a land line in over 4 years. With 1000 anytime minutes, unlimited long distance, unlimited nights and weekends... seriously, what is the point.

FreeHugeMovies · 04-16-2007, 11:14 PM

I do, but it's really only for faxing

falcao · 04-16-2007, 11:27 PM

Fap · 04-16-2007, 11:38 PM

Yep, but i use Vonage.

ztik · 04-17-2007, 12:09 AM

Vonage for a office line and fax line

d-null · 04-17-2007, 12:19 AM

I'm still afraid of the telephone

Rochard · 04-17-2007, 12:24 AM

I haven't had a land line in about three or four years. I have two cell phones and my Skype phone.

perfectodollars-gabrio · 04-17-2007, 12:34 AM

well i still use it.

salesman · 04-17-2007, 12:35 AM

I have one. Is that a problem to have one nowadays ?

After Shock Media · 04-17-2007, 12:40 AM

I keep mine, mostly since its butt ass cheap and the safest for emergencies.
Yes one is even non cordless.

Naja-ram · 04-17-2007, 01:53 AM

i use skype when i'm at home

hzoltan · 04-17-2007, 01:55 AM

Only for incoming calls. But planning to cancel it..

Fresh_Designs · 04-17-2007, 01:56 AM

My grandma does

Virago · 04-17-2007, 01:58 AM

Of course...

How else am I supposed to leave the Matrix?

Sexsitesurfer · 04-17-2007, 02:00 AM

I have VoiP and landline phones at home.

Why not? Costs f*ck all and doesn't hurt to have the option, as previously mentioned, in case of emergency. The VoiP and Skype are mainly used for international calls.

The landline is mostly for abusing telemarketers! ;)

v4 media · 04-17-2007, 02:42 AM

Yep although I only use the phone about once a week, never use my cell, it's there for the school to contact me, nothing else.
People ring me, I never ring them.

JFK · 04-17-2007, 02:42 AM

still have it, I'm in an area where receptrion for cell is not always good,but I'm on a very basic plan and have a seperate long distance discounter

markz08 · 04-17-2007, 02:50 AM

i still use it...

Ssv · 04-17-2007, 02:56 AM

Yes, i still use it

Sarah_Jayne · 04-17-2007, 02:59 AM

yes, simply because I have had that number since I moved to the UK and I don't want to lose it since there are some people that would have it as their only way of getting in contact with me. Plus, VOIP isn't as developed here..if I was in the States I probably wouldn't have a landline.

selena · 04-17-2007, 04:18 AM

We have vonage, and I have been toying with the notion of just going to our cell phones. But something about that idea makes me uneasy.

Not sure why, as we generally have good cell service. Probably just the psycho in me. I had a hard enough time switching to vonage. This nagging thought of 'what if we really are in the Matrix' wouldn't go away for the longest time.

Ross · 04-17-2007, 04:26 AM

I have mine but its more so other people can call me I guess. Most of my friends call my cell fone but my family call my landline.

Slick · 04-17-2007, 05:21 AM

I don't think I'd ever get rid of my home phone line because of 2 main reasons, first off, like others, the reception is bad and I'm not sure it's gonna ever get better because I'm in a small town, kinda at a dead end part of the state, surrounded by water, so why would they invest in more towers for this area, and secondly, I work from home, so I'm at home most of the time, so there's really no sense to only have a cell phone.

I even thought of a 3rd reason to have a home line. If you're married with kids and wanted to call home, how would you do it if you only had a cell phone ?? I suppose the answer to that question would be that every family member in the house would need to have a cell phone.

Farang · 04-17-2007, 05:36 AM

nah, I don't need it

HomerSimpson · 04-17-2007, 07:06 AM

I use it only to order food b'coz of the speed dials!

ADL Josh · 04-17-2007, 07:07 AM

only because sprint sucks inside my apartment.
