On February 23, Xiao Lei saw some netizens complaining in the home of the communicator that the landline was still charging long-distance charges. Although fixed-line and PHS are already things of the last era, the former is still used by people, especially large enterprises, which basically come standard with fixed-line calls.
Xiao Lei vaguely remembers that when he was a child, he used a mobile phone card, and the traffic and talk time were divided into local (city), provincial and national. It is already the 21st century, many business people need to travel around the country, internet access and calls are subject to regional restrictions, and this way of charging by operators will obviously slow down the pace of economic growth in the mainland.
On March 6, 2017, the three major operators of Mobile, China Unicom and Telecom collectively committed to stop collecting long-distance roaming charges by October 1, 2017 in response to and implementation of national requirements. After the popularization of mobile phones, Xiao Lei did not use landlines anymore, and he did not expect that the long-distance charges for fixed calls have not been cancelled so far.

What's even more outrageous is that Xiao Lei went to check the cost of the landline, the call price is actually more expensive than the mobile phone, the long-distance fee is even more ridiculously high, and whether you use it or not, you have to charge a monthly rent every month. So the question is, is it possible for landlines to stop charging long-distance charges?
Xiao Lei believes that landlines will most likely not stop charging long-distance charges. The reason is that after the popularity of mobile phones, ordinary people will not install landlines at all, and the basics that really need fixed phones are enterprises, and enterprise-level users will not care about a little long-distance cost.
In addition, because there are too few fixed-line telephone users, maintenance requires a lot of costs, but it is impossible to engage in a small profit and high sales strategy, so it can only increase the price. When the netizen asked when the fixed telephone would abolish the long-distance fee, many respondents believed that the landline would never stop charging long-distance charges.
Of course, for the average user, there is no need to care whether the fixed telephone long distance charge is reasonable, because it is basically impossible for us to install a landline in our own home. At the beginning, the streets of first-tier cities in China were still full of public telephones, and now they can't find it, and some things are destined not to change, but will only disappear completely due to the development of society.
In fact, in recent years, many new enterprises in China have no longer chosen landline telephones, but have chosen 400 telephones designed for enterprises. Friends who often receive advertising and promotion may have noticed that most of those calls are 4006/4008/4007/4001/4009 and other number segments. In the past, the fixed telephone was the façade of the enterprise and appeared to be more formal, but due to the rapid development of the Internet and communication technology, the era of the fixed telephone may not be long.
