My in laws have one in their house...it's just an old one that they never updated. It works but they rarely use it - they have like 3 cordless phones around the house.

So funny you say this because when that happened, DH and I were not yet married and the only way we could get in contact with one another was through landlines. So I had to go down into our basement with a flashlight looking for a spare and lo and behold, I found one to use!!!

Re: Do you know anyone that still has a rotary phone?
My grandma refuses to get a push-button phone. She says it confuses her.
She's 92 - in my book, she can do whatever she wants!

Re: Do you know anyone that still has a rotary phone?
I still have the one that was in my parent's bedroom, but not hooked up. When I have a house, I plan to use it somewhere. I still like talking on that receiver better than any other phone

Re: Do you know anyone that still has a rotary phone?
There is still one in the basement of my parents' house, hooked up and everything. I used to use it when I was a teenager when I wanted privacy before I was allowed a phone in my own room.

Re: Do you know anyone that still has a rotary phone?
My parents do but it is an antique! They don't have it hooked up, it is only for show!
We also have one at our summer house on the wall. We never use the phone there, so it is nostalgic of when my grandpa built the house!

My in-laws do, so if they ever lose power, they have a phone that works.

Re: Do you know anyone that still has a rotary phone?
My Dad
He worked for the phone company for 30 years too
He was right to keep it. It's outlasted all other phones we bought for at least 25 years, has the best voice clarity, and doesn't go out in a power outage but yes, it's a pain to dial out from so it's not used for outgoing calls.
