    Yep! The only people that ever use it is Hubby & Lil, when they can't get me on the mobile.

    Sigh!.....no. If my phone's engaged, instead of leaving a message, they'll call the landline, knowing I'll have to stop my other call to answer. Grrrr.

    We were supposed to have our landline transferred across when NBN was installed - however, they didn't do it. But the only calls we were getting were overseas scam calls, so we didn't worry about getting connected.

    My landline was part of the NBN according to Telstra it was cheaper than not having one. But the actual handset goes through the modem...or something

    I use discounted gift cards to save $$$. Up to 15% discounts in some cases. High usage is on woolworths, target, bigW, good guys gift cards discounts Up to 7%.

    I have car insurance with AAMI so I get access to Suncorp benefits.

    Suncorp Benefits

    And I have home loan/savings account with Macquarie and have similar access to gift cards.

    Prepay your PHI the week before their annual increase in premium and you’ll forever be 1 year behind the premiums.
