What Happens If You Take a Landline Phone and Take It Away From Home and Use It?

I am not sure what you mean, or I am sure and Yahoo wo not let me say it. What are you going to plug your home phone into? If it's a jack that already has a phone, it defeats the purpose of bringing a phone. The second part is I hope you do not expect your home phone to work without wires.......

1. Do I still have to pay anything to my landline phone company if I switch to VOIP service with another company?

Highest quality from what I've heard is Vonage. There are less expensive options but you may sacrifice features. I had Comcast digital voice for 30 a month, now I have Tmobile for 10/mo. But now I have no web-voicemail and it can not be used for faxing. There is a thing called magicjack which claims to give you home VOIP service for a year for $30 but there's no human support, which is obvious given it's low price. So, I think the leader in the industry is Vonage, but they are not the cheapest.

2. How can neighbors eves drop on a cord landline phone?

They can tap your hardline and can even use it without you knowing. It's more like they've cloned your hardline

3. Do you still use your landline phone service?

Do not even have one

4. Why keep a landline phone?

It may be more expensive depending on your cell plan. If your phone is charging or accidently turned off than your in trouble and its not listed in the phone book so some1 might not be able to find ur number,which could be good or bad. Some phones at places like schools and stuff wo not call cells, thier phone is like programed not to do it.

5. is it possoble to tap a landline phone?

It is easy to tap a landline. Cell phones just leave a better record of calls

6. Do some senior citizens continue to subscribe to landline phone service?

landline plus dialup here in FL Sure, I had 3 cellphones over time but the way they were set up made me go broke at $400 a month. I can do without those.

7. Help with landline phone please!!!?

Does your friend have a FAX machine on the line.???

8. I'm likely moving and need to find the local landline phone provider in the area I moving to how do I do this?

As long as you have high speed internet, I would go with Lingo or Vonage. You can call anywhere for free. The only downside is you must speed dial your local fire, police etc...911 does not work on these types of systems. ..yet. I have Lingo, it's 22 bucks a month flat fee, free calling anywhere. Vonage is about 25 bucks a month

9. Would having a landline phone be of value in a crisis where cell communications are knocked out?

I keep my landline, just in case. You never know, and I would rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it

10. What do you call the tones/sounds your landline phone makes when you dial it?

Hi..I think this is simple...On the land-lines...comming "off hook" a typical sound to hear is Dial Tone...Its a supervisory tone for the customer, letting the customer know, all is well and keep going. We no longer use the "Rotary Dial" for making a call..Maybe this term is out of date. You actually do not need a dial tone to make a call...as evidenced in the use of cell phones...The buttons, on the phone are actually 2 frequencies put together, for you to hear that you pushed a button...again a supervisory signal for the customer. Years ago someone put out a somewhat popular book of songs you can play, using your touch-tone pad..The problem was you ended up calling some poor guy in Turkey or maybe France, that did not speak English, or understand the value of a music song, using the telephone...Go FigureDave

11. please help.. is there anyway to find a non published landline phone # free?

There use to be a company that printed a book called the Dickmand Cris-cross or Dickman Cross Connect. Realtors used them and so did the Police. Doubt you can buy one.
