Do You Still Have A Land Line?

I still have a land line also. I have a cell but really it's a waste of money. I only use it when I go some where out of town with friends or to take pictures with since it has a built in camera but other then that I hardly use mine either. It's prepaid so it doesn't cost a lot to keep time on it but it is really a waste I think I just got it to say I have a cell phone.

i have one. i have been trying to get rid of it for a year now but i just can't seem to let go. everyone in the house has a cell, but that damn what i call house phone is still in there and sucking $65 out of my pocket every month

Yes we still have a land line. We got a bundle pack through a company and can make all the long distance calls we want for one low price. We also have 2 cell phones.

We still have a landline simply because the family seems to be pretty old fashioned when it comes to that sort of thing. It's just easier for other family members and friends to call the house since someone is usually always home. That, and it saves the trouble of always having to worry about whether or not the phone is charged and what not. Landlines are nice, cell phones are nice. It just seems strange to get rid of landlines completely.

I have a cell phone which I use very seldom and we keep our land line. I do not want all the phone calls on my cell phone. I also do not like the fading in and out that sometimes happens with the cell phone when I am on an important call. I also keep long distance on my land line so I can call my sisters when I want and not worry about the fading in and out.

yes, I still have a land line.I still use my land line because my sister live far away and it is cheaper to use my land line than to use my cell phone due to where i am. it costs me about $500 (jamaican dollars).I also need it for my internet connection so I have all the reasons to want to keep it.

You are in good health at using your landline. there is a study that prolonged use of celphone can make one sick. specially when you receive or make calls because they vibrate and emmit some electronical something that causes sickness.

I still have a landline and till date that is my preferred option.

Yes, we still have our landline phone. We use it to make local calls and for the bill collectors. We also have a cell phone. But we mainly use our cell phone to make long distance calls and for emergencies. We use to have long distance service on our land line phone but when we purchased a cellphone we took it off and now we are saving a few bucks.

I am also not of the type who constantly be on the go. I still have land line at my home and I still come on internet by dialing up from my computer modem using local land line. DSL or cable net is not availabe in my part of city. Dial up sure has lesser speed but I have to manage on that.

yeah we do have a land line. one of the requirements for us to have broadband internet connection here is that we're required to have a land line. only then we are able to apply for the broadband internet connection. sometimes when i'm home i do use the land line to call people, but only those who knows my house number hehe :)

Yeah i still have a landline. I dont get much service with my cell phone up here where i live so it wouldnt make much sense for me to not have a landline. I know a lot of people though that has just went to using cell phones completetly.

I do have a land line as well as a cell phone additionally. I prefer a land line's reliability and consistency as opposed to cell phone's battery failures, steep rates, and such. Not to say I don't use my cell phone much.

i would have gotten rid of my land line had i not need to use it for work. i work from home and i use both cell phone and land line. but actually a lot of people are switching to the unlimited cell phone plans cuz its just smarter! right now available in texas and california you can get boost mobile unlimited. cricket is also available and even the metro service aka "Ghettro"

when I moved into my new place I didn't even get a landline because I have a cell phone. its easier to keep my cell phone as my primary number. It wasn't even worth it set up a land line because cell phone minutes end up being cheaper anyway.

I'm strictly a land line person. I am almost a shut in, so a cell is all but useless. Cell phones are for folks on the go. They are also more expensive as a rule than land lines, their calls tend to drop frequently too. I am not completely techno-null, I have a cable modem with a computer attached.

I had a land line up until June. I went to pay the bill and the place where i usually pay it at wasn't open due to the 4th of July and when I wen to the other place to pay, they wouldn't take my payment. So I lost my phone. I want to open it again, but my daughter stay on a phone and though I don't mind that, she don't use moderation on it at all and also my mom is pestering me for money more these days, but it is a dream to have one again; I also have a cell phone too. Had it since May, and keep up the payment. My youngest used it for text messaging her little girlfriend and it cost the earth, so once we got this straight, she hasn't used it for that any longer.

My husband and I still use a land line and probably will continue to do so when we move into our house. We thought about foregoing our land line, but we figured we might as well keep our line. It can come in handy. If you forget to charge your cell, you have a regular phone. Regular phones can be traced easier in emergencies if I'm not mistaken, but don't quote me on that. I know several people that solely use their cells, but I guess I'm content having both. We share a cell and we're on a plan with his sister, so we only pay like $15 a month I think. If we went to using a cell all the time, we would have to get another phone and get a plan of our own because we would need more minutes. I guess we could go pre-paid, but those can run pricey too. We need a cell with good reception because we live in a wooded area, and many cells tend to not pick up very clearly. It's something to think about, but like I said, we're pretty pleased with how things are now.:)

Hello Rozie. Yes, We still have a land line. And like you, I keep thinking of a very good excuse why we should let it be cut off. My number one reason for still having is that my father refuse to have a cell phone, and the only way we can contact each other is through the land line. And the other reason that I still opt to have it is that there are times that I'll have no way of recharging my cell phone in case of black outs. And we're always having that lately. So, land lines may get outdated in the future, but still it serves a great purpose.

I do have one. When I'm at home I always use it instead of a cellphone. It's cheaper and safer. I read somewher that celphones should be used for short calls only becouse hey're they send radiation that's bad for your body (head in particullar).
