We still have old time home phone line althought we don't need it for ADSL here in Finland. We have been talking about stopping it, but it seems my wife still like to have it. Almost no one phoned to it, as I have my own GSM phone and wife have her own. Sometimes some unlucky tele marketer calls (I like to do dirty tricks to tele marketers).

Phone companies used to be a PITA here too, but after GSM we had so many new operators who sell lines almost for free they had to change their business models. I don't pay any monthly cost for my GSM line, only 7 cents per call (in Finland). I remember the time when it was 50 cents per minute or more. That was the time when phones were NMT and they cost almost $2000. My GSM was something like $100 when I bought it, lol! Nokia, of course.

I use private ADSL line. My wife's dayjob bought her that line, but as my company use it, I pay the monthly bill. That was OK to everyone. 35 euros per month is not much for 24/7 line to net, and the operator already gave us users more speed. They had to, as new operators sell more speed cheaper.
