My New Cell Phone
#11
This is too funny! Every time DH takes me to get a new cell phone (he who always has the latest techy phone available), I drive the poor clerks wild with my "demands"- no camera, no bells, no whistles, etc.- I just want a phone that does nothing but make and receive calls. Of course, it's impossible to find that any more.

Too funny! The reverse of that is when my parents needed to have their phone serviced and the young repairman came to the house and had no idea what to do. Now granted this was more than 20 years ago, but their phones were still hardwired into the wall. Poor guy had never even seen that! They had to get an older repair guy!

They now have simple phones out that just phone. I was at the Rogers store a couple of weeks ago and they had two models with large buttons and loud volume and they wouldn't do anything but phone.They were only $9.99 with the basic plan for three years. I think a lot of seniors really like them.

I got a cell phone a few yrs ago and had them take texting option off and messages too. Anything that would cost me extra. i only want it for a phone and mostly for emergencies when in the car. cheaper that way!
