Do you answer your phone?

Or do you let the A/M take care of it and call back when you have time? . I never answer mine.

I always answer my phone but hang up on the cold callers.

If I don’t recognise the number, I don’t answer!

Re: Do you answer your phone?

With the landline I always let the answering machine get it so I can screen the calls. If it's a cold caller they never leave a message.

My mobile I always answer and I seem to be lucky in so far as I don't get any cold caller/sales calls on it.

Re: Do you answer your phone?

I don't have an answering machine on my landline, but if it's my mobile I'll usually answer unless I don't know the number - I'd it goes to answer machine and there's no message and I don't know the number then I'll block it.

Re: Do you answer your phone?

My phone always seems to wait until I'm driving before it rings, so I have to let it go to answer. If someone leaves a message I call back..

Re: Do you answer your phone?

Yes I answer it of course. Might be Mrs. Floydysaurus in an emergency or something. No hassle is it, answering a phone...you only have to get up off the couch!
