When Was the Last Time You Used a Landline Phone?

This month and this year are the same thing at this point, since it's January. And the last time I used a phone was in December, so none of the options work for me, since it was last year but not over a year.

... because when power is out I can still make a call if I need to and report the power outage. While I do have a working cell, within the home the signal blows and I have too many dropped calls. Finally, I've had such a horrible experience with VOIP, I've walked away from it completely.

Fax needs to hurry up and finish dieing.

The most common interpretation of "this month" and "this year" would have them meaning the same thing. Perhaps if this was the New Year's Day poll, we could get the first four answers all meaning the same thing!

inane minutiae!

Except when the power goes out, then it acts like a hammer

How many people who say they used landlines today used them at their work and assumed VoIP was a POTS line?

If it is at my desk at work, and wired to the wall...it is a landline.

Landlines == wired to the wall

No need to dicker about behind the scenes protocols.

You are either cellular or landline.
