Who still has a landline? Then the next question, who still uses it? Then an advanced question, who ONLY uses it versus a cell phone? We still have a landline. We still use it. & our cell is only for emergencies so our landline is our main line. I am not eager to get tied down by a phone. I like seeing the answering machine & if it is blinking if we have messages. Or just glancing to see if new calls. Instead of having to wake the cell from sleep mode, log back in sometimes, click on several buttons just to get to the phone!

I haven't had a landline in several years, although I think it's a good thing to have, I really dislike talking on the phone in the first place. (That might have something to do with the fact that I was a help desk worker for nearly eight years...) I really like the ability to put my smartphone on Do Not Disturb, and I'll answer ONLY those calls whom I know are either contacts/friends, or if the other person can be bothered to leave a message. I really like having the ability to read my voice messages as text messages too.

My dad still has one, I doubt I will ever get one even though while growing up I thought for sure I would have one. Funny how things change.

We still have a landline here. We get a lot of spam calls on it though which is annoying. It came as part of a package deal with our internet and cable TV.

We still have one, although the majority of calls we get on it are junk calls now .

We haven't had a landline for close to 6 years now. I can't say I miss it for anything.
