We still have our home phone which is part of a bundle, which includes unlimited local & STD calls.

It is great to call my Mum or other family members as we can talk for ages which we couldn't do with a mobile. Also my Mum would hardly ever ring me as it would cost her to much & she wouldn't ring from a mobile as their reception is really bad.

I hardly get calls from telemarketers as we are on the 'do not call' register.

I also like it as if I have to call certain companies and know I could be on hold for ages I am not worrying about the cost.
