I know...most people DON'T have a landline. Verizon made my bundle cheaper>

with the landline than without. Ou here, t is Xfinity and they don't care. Thing is, we are getting older and some day may need 911...I'll just have to count on cell outages being few and far between. We had no service problems today at my house according to my wife

Actually, it IS a pretty big deal. I no longer have a landline since we->
HOKIERIT • 02/22/24 07:02 PM ET
All those that lost there minds weren't worried about making a 911 call.
UEMcGill • 02/22/24 10:56 PM ET
Oh yeah..I agree. I wasn't freaking by any stretch, but it did occur to me**

Haven't had a landline since sometime in early 2000 and have survived.

And that is why I still have the same land line I've had since 1995.
Hokie CPA • 02/22/24 07:09 PM ET
Had the same number for 35 years through 2 moves. Kind of hated to lose it**
HOKIERIT • 02/22/24 08:14 PM ET
I wonder if landlines are vulnerable to such an attack.
MP4VT2004 • 02/22/24 07:08 PM ET

HokieJamie • 02/22/24 10:55 PM ET
I had a real landline up until last year when I retired and closed ->
HOKIERIT • 02/23/24 06:48 PM ET
Good question.. I don't know either**
HOKIERIT • 02/22/24 08:14 PM ET

Fortunately the network theme is catchy. And brings to mind the 85 Bears.**
