The reason the landline telephone has not become outdated is simply the
functionality of such a system. Most individuals have a cell phone, but when it
comes to homes and businesses these are entities with fixed locations that should
have a dedicated number. Businesses can advertise their number all over their
service area for a small fee by their carrier without fear of their number
being changed, as they have the right to be the only entity with that number.
We have all received "wrong number" calls on our cell phones because
providers recycle those numbers and that is usually not the case with
landlines.
The landline telephone has been in existence for about a century and
because of that carriers and providers have thoroughly experimented with the
overhead involved with providing such a service. The rates that are associated
with landlines are generally the same from month-to-month, whereas cell phones
have numerous different charges that can be accumulated by a user unknown to them.
Roaming charges, exceeding certain limits and even different times of the day
can cause discrepancies in a user’s service bill.
Cell phones are subject to a lot of different types of interference because
the signal is transmitted over air waves, but with landlines the signal is
actually sent through wires so the chances of your call being "dropped"
or "lost" are minimal.
Businesses and home phones all over the nation on their landline telephones
for many reasons. The most frequent are
emergencies and the reliable service they provide. Landlines are undeterred by weather, most
natural disasters and high volumes of calls.
