Re: Do you still have a landline?

I have to. I have relatives who would object to phoning a mobile to speak to me as they only have PAYG. A landline is an absolute necessity. An expensive one, though!

And I have broadband too.

Re: Do you still have a landline?

One of my credit card companies needed a landline number for me.

The actual phone I've got is one of those retro trim phones which doesn't have a display and is straight out of 1975. It is orange and yellow - pretty ugly but I don't use it often.

Odd. Maybe it's Canadian thing? I use ebay and paypal often and have never run into that.
