Are you prepared if you have got home and left your mobile somewhere.?phone numbers etc

My service provider has a plan which I m on, whereby I keep my phone line without charge unless I make any calls then I have to pay for them So I keep my phone line for emergencies but as long as I don’t make any calls on it I don’t pay anything
Maybe your provider has that plan too I m with EE

My phone syncs to my tablet, and to the cloud, and I have several apps I could use. Or I could reach lots of folk on social media.

I will certainly plan another back up, not sure if my tablet will link to my phone as tablet is Huwie and phone samsung but will certainly look into it.

What a good reminder!! My numbers are also on my iPad, but I have no other backup except my memory!

I would just use an internet messenger to call or message using my tablet or laptop. No need for numbers as they link using names.

Same as Siope no landline, mobile lives in my back pocket or handbag.

Phone is backed up but could get all the numbers from whatsapp that runs on my computer.

I've kept my landline for this very reason. Free calls included in Wi-Fi package.

I have kept my landline as I am not a great lover of mobile phones. They have their uses when you are out and need a taxi but i feel they breach privacy.

I first got a mobile when I worked for the uni and I used to go out into different parts of the city interviewing people. They issued me with one and liked me to check in with my location before and after a visit. Well that was work and a safeguarding issue. I never told my family I had one. I dont want people (like clingy relatives) to get in touch with me easily. More recently I had to buy a cheap smart phone to run my security system (it would not run on the tablet) but its smart enough to stay out of my way unless I need it.

All my phone numbers are listed in my diary,

I have NEVER given my phone number to a neighbour!

The thought of being locked out with no mobile phone is so terrifying that I always triple check my keys, phone and glasses! Money or cards if required of course.

We have found our landline invaluable on two occasions for emergencies last winter. So I am not looking forward to the day they stop being available.

I sometimes ask Alexa to call people.

Not had a landline for years and years....we both have mobiles and I have a works mobile with all my close family numbers in....I have email access on my ipad and laptop
