On The Cellular Level
So, I’m seriously considering turning off my home line and going cellular only. When people try to get in touch with me they’ll call me at home, leave a quick message like “Hey, I have something neato-fucking-bitchen to tell you, but you’re not home … I’m gonna try your cell.” What’s the point of having two numbers, then?
I currently own four phone numbers. One person, four phone lines. There’s my home line, business line, fax line and cellular number. Ridiculous.
My current cell provider is AT&T Wireless, who I’m not entirely happy with. Their service is spotty (all of them are), at home the service is pretty poor, they REALLY let me down when I was in Chicago last year (absolutely no service the entire time I was there) and they’ve made mistakes on their billing at least three times in the last two years that I’ve caught. So, I’m considering moving over to Verizon Wireless, who has the best customer satisfaction and service ratings. Problem with Verizon is they’re also one of the more expensive cell service companies, right behind NexTel. But I think the phrase “you get what you pay for” applies with cell service.
I don’t think I’ll miss not having a home line since, well, I’ll already have two other land lines coming into my home office.
Has anyone else made the jump to cell only? Any regrets? Any recommendations?
