According to a report from UK phone regulator Ofcom, calls made from mobiles now account for more than a third of all time spent on the phone. 9% of UK households rely solely on mobiles, compare to 7% who only have a fixed line phone.
I’m surprised that only 9% of the UK rely solely on mobiles, although I expect that number to grow dramatically as the ‘texting’ generation move out of their parents homes. I rely almost exclusively on my mobile phone. I only have a fixed line (well VoIP) at home to call my parents who live overseas, and for them to call me. The only other numbers I call from my home phone are 0870, 0845 and 0800 numbers as these are quite expensive or not free with T-Mobile.
Do you use your mobile exclusively, or do you still have a fixed line at home?
