re: Do you still have a landline home phone?

Last time was I think 2010

My parents have a landline still.

Never in my adult life.

Fun fact. If you have a home elevator, at least in St Tammany, Code requires you to have a lane line in the elevator car.

Even funner fact...you brag about firing employees for asking for a raise. loser

Not since moving in 2000. I haven’t had a desk phone at work for about 5 years.

Have not used a land line in almost 15 years but interestingly had to have one for about 5 years after that. Wife had a job that required her to be able to fax orders. So had one that a fax machine was hooked up to but no phone.

Yes!

I never give out my cell number. I get almost zero spam calls.

The landline gets a quick glance at the call ID, and gets answered 1/5 times.

Also, cell phones tend to drop important calls, landlines do not. Nothing worse the 30 minutes on hold, and the call drops.

Hi! This is Chloe from Worldwide Health Solutions. We've got some exciting news about your Medicare Plan B coverage......

Years ago we ported our landline to a free Google Voice account using a $45 OBI voice adapter.

We provide that landline number when shopping online.

Today the only people who call it are telemarketers and a few clueless in-laws.
