I got tired of seeing a $5 charge per month on my Verizon landline phone bill as a penalty for not using any long distance (also a charge per month for having the service). I do all of my long distance calling on my cell phone. Called Verizon today--they helped me remove both the service and the non-use charge.
Many people have dropped their landlines altogether. I'm keeping mine for two reasons: 1) Sometime cell phones may be down and I don't want to be without a phone, and 2) my Directv Tivo doesn't have an ethernet port so it needs to connect through the phone.
If I ever need to make a long distance call on my phone, I can still use a service like 10-10-220 in case of an emergency.
