Should I keep my land line phone? Pros and cons?

Alexandria Popik: Land lines usually work in bad storms when you lose power. You have to have a corded phone somewhere in the house.Limited use is really bad.

Adan Alipio: I have my land line, because during the ice storm when the power was out for up to 12 weeks in some areas, the excess use of the cell phones caused cell towers to become over loaded and calls could not be made.

King Bringle: My mom did this and so did I. the only time I ever omit my land line is while i circulate over my minutes, yet that is remedied via getting a plan with greater of them. there is incredibly no reason to have a land line till you're making favourite, long calls that your on the spot provider would not conceal or could charge you lots for.
