    Milestone for cellphones vs. landline phones

    I gave up my landline years ago. Probably 10+ years ago.

    It's interesting that many businesses are now assuming you are using a cell phone, and link SMS alerts directly to your main phone number, without asking for a different cell phone number (they still have to ask if you want the alerts though)

    what to do if i do not have a smart phone only landline number

    N8 does not recognise my home landline number

    I have a contact for my home landline number, and the number is correct (i.e. it works when I call home). The contact also has a picture, and a custom ringtone.



    When I phone the N8 from the home number, it doesn't use the custom ringtone, it doesn't show the picture, and when I look in the log, it hasn't recognised the call as coming from my contact, but it has got the correct phone number (proving that I'm not
    masking the number on calls from the home landline).



    Is there something special I have to do to persuade the N8 to accept UK landline calls, and match them up with my contacts? I've checked my contacts, and only one contains the home landline number, so the N8 is not finding the wrong contact.



    My wife's mobile works just fine, so the basic mecanism is OK. I just needto persuade the N8 that 01420555555 = 01420555555 (I changed a few digits, to hide my actual number, of course, otherwise you'd all be phoning me with helpful suggestions, I'm sure).



    I'm on Anna, by the way.
