loops Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 on feb 14th my mobile decided to stop recognising its sim card. Last saturday i took it took get fixed and today just had a post card saying its knacked and cant be fixed.. I have not really missed it at all. Him indoors can vouch what a miserable bag i am at keeping in contact lol So could you cope this long without yours or would you be climbing the walls at being non contactable?

Andy Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Would not be too bothered about not being contactable, however I read books all day long on the Kindle app on my phone That would hurt me A LOT !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 completely lost without my phone, i text alot! and without it i would go nuts lol im always on my phone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueWolf Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I can live without it. Though I feel that the most problems will be with the other people unable to reach me when I'm not home I only have a mobile phone in case of an emergency. Anything else I need to tell/call someone for can wait until I'm home where I use the landline or computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calvinandmommy Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I talk to my mom everyday since she lives 3 states away so I would probably beg my husband to leave me his or something lol. My mom and husband are really the only people I talk on the phone with anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemysiberian Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Yes I would, since I moved into my new apartment, I opted out of getting a house phone.. so other than internet, my mobile is my only form of communication and I use it heavily for work. Last month, I lost it in the snow while playing with Echo.. it was very hard to get through that week without a phone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elyse Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Before I got my smartphone, I could care less about my old phone. It could really only call, and I didn't call that often. Now, with my iPhone, I do so many things that I can't believe I lived without for so long! Like, if I get lost in a new city, I can just go to the 'Maps' app to find out where I am and where I need to go. Or taking pictures on-the-go when I don't have my camera on me, the iPhone camera does a good job for what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormchaser09 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I use mine for alarm, internet, emails and map my walk app, so I would be lost without it. Mind you it is totally crap as a phone, it can do everything bar make and hold onto calls, it always cuts me off. It's been back for repair twice and then replaced but still the problem remains. Can't wait for contract to end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Nah, wouldn't miss it at all, but my OH insists I have one - in case he needs to find me in a hurry I keep losing the darn things - I put it down and before you know it, it's gone to cell phone heaven, or wherever phones go when they are lost.

Dunc Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I'd be lost without it only time I can't see it is when am asleep and if it broke this morning I would have a new one by lunch time :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I'm like Rosemary to the extent I have an heir and a spare as family bulk buys them when they're on offer. I am frequently getting told off about either not having the phone with me or if I do not being switched on. I have even been told by my sons on more than one occasion that the green button is the one that accepts calls. They keep changing my ring tones. I've had Homer Simpson with a mad scientist message about answering the phone and now having a cock crowing. First time I heard the new ring tone I said I can hear chickens.

Liz Jones Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I would feel like my arm had been cut off... Not that I contact people much but I use it alot to access HO and also use an app to count calories as I'm trying to loss weight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loops Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 lol Biggles. many years ago i never ever wanted a phone. If peeps wanted me i'd got a land line.

Rosemary Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I have even been told by my sons on more than one occasion that the green button is the one that accepts calls. After I lost one of my phones, I went with my OH to buy a new one - got very strange looks from the sales person when I said I wanted a phone with a hello and goodbye button - that's all I need But they are invbaluable in an emergency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 um... I wouldn't be devistated, but it would need to replaced pretty quickly. I'm not on it all of the time, but i'm on it enough lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povodny Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I use mine mainly as a mini computer, anything I want to look up, accessing HO, a calendar, alarm clock, weather checker. Don't really use it as a phone unless I'm away from home. So would I miss it? Yes but not because it's a phone, because it does everything else.
