I just couldn't pull the trigger for years. I have never not had one.
Now, today, it's done. Please don't call my old landline number anymore

It's about time...

Now you’ll have to use all those quarters on the pay phone

I broke down a couple of years ago. The transition was smooth & have no regrets.

What were you paying monthly and for how long Leon ? Yellow Pages, Pay Phones and now Landlines

Great, I still haven't. I am probably the only person in the world without a cell phone. I make very few calls and get even less. I keep it because every company wants to know your phone #.

I much prefer landlines. Clearer reception, no radiation.

You will soon, I was a part of your club till a few months ago.
Still trying to learn the iphone.
Needless to say, still have a landline phone.
Gets tons of Scammers of it tho, sometimes i disconnect it or let the "unavailable' blurps get the answering machine.

I don't think I've ever made a call on a landline, come to think of it. Had a flip phone until the iPhone released, which I saved every penny I could to afford to the first one.

I have a hard time picturing life without an iPhone (or similar) now. There is much to be said for slower-paced living and disconnecting from the world sometimes, but I wouldn't be able to hold a job and do what I need to do in the modern world we live in without one. Best money I spend is the iPhone.

It was around 50 dollars a month. But, like I said, I heard it ring but all of my landline-cordless phones have been dead for about a yr. And I only averaged a few calls on it, a year, for many years before that.
