Who still has em'?

I have two cell phones, but still keep my home phone anyway I had to go off on AT&T today cuz my damn bill is $300 and all I have is internet and a home phone Every two months or so I get something in the mail from them for a new order being placed and not by me I called them today and went the hell off and told them to make the shit a basic line and to stop messing with my bill I swear we get nickled and dimed every where

Not I.

I was trying to disconnect it, but they kept trying to keep me

Still got mine, since I'm on DSL and have older relatives that know the home number well. It has it's conveniences since it never needs charging.

This is the first time in YEARS we've had one (and don't use it). We needed a line for the alarm system.

When I lived in a house mine's went through the phone line also and nice house btw

I wish they had the same deals for landlines as for cell phones, because they are a lot better to talk on than cell phones.

You can switch your DSL off the phone line, switch to Vonage for 35 a month and keep your phone number. I did that two years ago when I got tired of them high ass bills from AT&T. I still have my DSL with them but that's it.

I know and that's one of the reasons why I keep it besides my cell phone reception is terrible in my apartment

I was trying to, but they were trying to make me happy with deals n shit only to be screwed later Is Vonage any good though?

plus the sound is terrible on cell phones, and there is this interruption always happening, people trying to talk at the same time

I'm happy with it and I work at home holding meetings which a celly isn't really good for. With Vonage I get every possible feature included plus cheap intl calls which I had to pay for separately with AT&T for $35 a month.

Nice info I will look into it Anybody know anything about Clear internet? My son's friends father has it and says its slow as hell, but I was just wondering

Yeah, I got one. That I never use. I really should get rid of it.

I do. I miss the good old days when you could order a phone in any color you wanted..

I once went antiquing, and they had vintage phones. A little girl asked her mom there, "what's that..." "how does it work?" it was an old dial phone. God forbid the number you were trying to call had alot of 9's in it

I don't own a cell phone.

My brother-in-law has Vonage and has been very happy with it. I got rid of my land line last year when it started costing lots of money just to have basic service. I didn't make any long distance calls on it. I live in the country in the midwest and was actually on dial up until last year. I know, I know! Not too many options in my area but found one that works for me!!

My husband and I each have cell phones, but we still have our land line. The land line is pretty useless, though, since we ditched caller I'd and long distance. I don't know why we don't just give it up.

after I get my cell phone, and if I manage to use it, I think we will ditch our landline. Or maybe I should wait until my grandma passes on?

I do; need it for DSL internet (Verizon)

but I never talk on it..

I want to get rid of my land line phone

Just got a mobile phone again for the first time in over 5 years (thanks Carrie! ) so we don't bother with a landline anymore.

I ditched my land line 7 years ago. Haven't missed it.

Same here pretty much.

I pay around $40- a month for my land line....i cant live without it. My cell is crap...(pay as you go)
