Although you try to keep track of it, you can lose or misplace your smartphone at any time. When this happens, it’s good to have home phone service as a backup. TSC in Wapakoneta, OH, has been a trusted telephone company since the 19^th century and also provides area residents with fast, affordable, and reliable TV and internet services. They say it's still a good idea to have a home phone service provider.

3 Reasons Home Phone Service Is Necessary

1. Privacy

If you have a home phone number, you can use it for business transactions, online purchases, and other times people you don't know well need a contact number. You can reserve your cell phone number for people you know personally.  

2. Emergencies

If you experience a power outage, you won’t have to worry about interruptions in landline service. This is especially important during long-term power outages when you might have trouble recharging your smartphone. Having a home phone also is convenient if your cell ever is on the fritz.

3. Better for Businesses

Your home phone number is the one listed in the telephone book, and marketers and companies will reach out to it instead of your smartphone. It also is useful if you need to contact someone who’s actually in your home — you won’t have to go through the cell phones of various family members to find someone who’s there.

You can include a home phone with your internet and cable TV service bundles for little or no cost.
