In 15 years I can not see there being a landline charge, due to a generation change where more people are used to using mobile more landlines, but whilst lots of people continue to use the landline, the companies will continue to rip us all off.

Until more people use their landlines less than they use their mobiles, we will all suffer.

It really winds me up, unlike SS, it is not financially viaable for me to not have a landline. Quite how my bills are cheaper with it, is beyond me.
When they no longer charge for landlines, my belief is that they will simply transfer the charge elsewhere. I can't see bills coming down overall because they still need to make a profit.
