I no longer have a landline phone, only cell phone and <a href="http://www.skype.com">Skype</a>. I got non-ADSL broadband <a href="http://andthennothing.net/archives/2004/12/22/connected">five months ago</a> and should really have cancelled my landline back then, but it&#8217;s a bit scary and time flies. No more $200 per year that is of no use.</p> <p>The cancellation process was incredibly smooth: call customer service, queue for 10 minutes, tell the phone number and name and when it should stop working, and that&#8217;s it. Quite far from the proccess Russell Beattie had to go through in order to <a href="http://www.russellbeattie.com/notebook/1008473.html">recharge a pre-paid account</a>, and to cancel a landline phone seems like it&#8217;s supposed to be a bit harder.</p>
