>How does that solve the problem?

It directly solves your problem does it not? You now have a number that can receive texts... I don't understand your confusion.

I'm specifically asking you why do you have a landline? The "problem" is solved by not having one.

>to have non-mobile numbers auto return a message that it cannot receive text messages

I've seen these errors when I've mistakenly sent an sms to a landline. This already exists, maybe just for some carriers though.



I can have a landline if I want. There is no law that I have to get a mobile number.


I'm not talking about laws, I legitimately am just asking why you want to lol. Username checks out


Our children do not have cell phones and their baby sitters often don't have cell phones (at least the younger baby sitters). A landline allows those without cell phones to make calls out of the house.
