Phone Help!? Not Mobile!

Neoni · 13 Mar 2006 at 20:05

Hi guys.

i ring my girlfriend everyday, when im at college and at home when im out it tends to be my mobile, when home house phone i can only ring her on her mobile as she lives in a three floored house and her bedroom is top floor, and theres no phones up there. right so i top up my mobile a lot to ring her, but i use house phone to ring her when i get in...

but as you can tell the house phone bill last month for the three of us was over 100 pounds?

i believe thats a lot? any ideas on priceplans or anything i could try to get my mum and dad interested in? i dont want to have to stop ringing her, thats not gonna happen its just gonna be expensive bills.

Why not buy her a cheap cordless phone for her room? Would work out cheaper in the long run

hmm well, she doesnt uise the net much shes always going bed like 9ish when she gets in we talk til like 10 ish about an hour a night, so she dont get time much to go on the net.

Get a mobile phone with free minutes on it?

Or just get her to come down to the second floor when you ring her on the house phone?

gib786 · 13 Mar 2006 at 20:10

skype + cordless skype phone for the win, so she can leave the pc on and just use the phone

Law and I stayed together for 2 1/2 years whilst three hours apart. Phonecalls every other or every third day and MSN aplenty = win.

Now we're about 12 feet apart and it rocks.

shes nearly 19, she has to get up at 5.45... her bus takes 45 mins to get to her work, she then works through til 5.30/6pm comes home gets home at 7.15 ish, has tea, relaxes then goes back to bed, hows that being 9 years old?

He was only taking the mick...

Neoni · 13 Mar 2006 at 20:14

i know, i know... sorry

Can't a phone socket be installed on the top floor? Simple wiring job surely?

Neoni · 13 Mar 2006 at 20:15

probably depends if she wants to though, im not sure, might just have to use the phone, and pay for the phone bill myself?

penski · 13 Mar 2006 at 20:16

Well if she's nineteen and working full time, she can surely afford to call you or get a cordless house phone?

Even more so if she's living at her 'rents.
