    many...

    nowadays, everyone seems to have a mobile and so pay phones have become less popular.

    I almost forget about this thing if you not mentioned it. There are a couple of pay phones booth near my house. But the last time I'm using it was in 1999.

    There are.. But the # of people using it has come down significantly over the years..

    Thanks to Dhirubhai Ambani..
    Their introductory offer of mobile phones for INR 500 made the difference.

    Reliance India Mobile!

    Come on India! Karlo Duniya Mutti mein! :p

    Pay Phones are very rare these days because of vandalism.

    We did but im sure the one that was situated at the bottom of my road was removed, local yobs kept smashing the glass on it.

    Only people ive ever seen using street pay phones are dealers and junkies.

    The local transport company removed the bus shelter too, im suprised the local council haven't started removing the paving yet, lol

    im not "So Interested in pay phones" i have not seen any around in years thats why im asking see who has them and who doesn't. they will be extinct soon with all the cell phones these days.
    and yes youll see dealers use pay phones but now a days the feds need more than a phone call to bust someone so i still talk on cell phones in a very unique code system who use around here and update often. so even if the feds were listening they would have no real proof of ANYTHING.
