CastelF Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Does anyone see any downside to canceling your home phione. I'm dealing with several CA, but can't they just use the mail. I want to save money and I have a Cell phone, so I'm thinking about canceling, I was just wondering if there is any downside, if the CA calls and my phone is canceled?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southerngirl Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Sometimes this drives them to the dreaded third party calls. They will begin to call family and neighbors looking for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legal_loansharking Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Even with a home phone, it doesnt stop 3rd party calls. Cancel it and save some $$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustaTexan Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Do you want to talk to them over the phone? I don't talk to them over the phone unless I pick up by mistake. I used to and then learned my lesson. You can always use your cell phone if you would like to. I don't have a landline either and so far I am pleased.

cavazos007 Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Oh man I haven't had a house phone in years. No need if you have a cell phone. And no more collection calls... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zfire Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 You could probably keep basic service if you needed a fax machine at home or something. I just leave my land line on FAX auto answer most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzle1979 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Years ago I told all my creditors to not call me only to contact me in writing and I provided them with an address. I didn't get calls anymore but TONS of mail. I eventually cut the home phone off to cut expenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
