Thank you! Sorry I'm just catching up. I've been sick half the month of January and I'm just getting to catch up here at my top fav website.
Okay, I see. It's a digital cell phone, but pre-"Smart Phone". How do you have a carrier for it?

A Carrier? Not sure what you mean. It is on the 'EE' network which is still quite popular over here - used to be Orange until a few years ago when EE brought them up. I have to go to the shop once in a while to get £10 worth of time put on it, it actually lasts a few months as I rarely make calls on it, just the odd texts to do with disabled sports or health visits. A lot more people text me on it with reminders. And also passwords for all my on-line accounts like Microsoft Hotmail etc
It must be different in the UK. Here we have big carriers like Verizon, or C-Spire, and on and on. Each one has their own network, although they claim to all use the same cell phone towers (I don't understand that). We pay $17 a month for a Moto E smart phone with 400 minutes, but unlimited text. So she uses her tablet and we text whenever I'm out.
Then we have a VOIP "house phone", but it runs off the internet. It doesn't always ring tho when people call. LOL
I have a house-phone/land-line, but that is part of a combined package I get from Sky U.K. - I am disabled so if I buy a big bundle (phone line, TV line/cable, internet connection) I pay a set charge a month (with about a 10% discount overall) and also most of my phone calls are free too from the land-phone, although I don't actually make that many
For my little mobile phone, which is on the EE network, I have to go into town and buy top-ups on to it which are usually in the form of £10 (about $12) add-ons. It is a simple pre-pay set up so I can not go overdrawn or into the red. When the £ in my mobile phone a/c goes down to zero I can not send nor text although I can still receive, but it's never gotten that low for as long as I remember.

Ah...that's not too bad. We pay $25 for the VOIP phone. But like I said, it doesn't work without net. So if our power is out, or we have an issue with the router, I have to drive down the street to get a signal on my cell. LOL
Not bad! We are going to start paying $89 a month for 1 gigabit fiber.
Can't wait!
