I have a couple of friends who will call my cell phone number, and if I don't answer will leave a message. Then they will immediately call my home phone number, and leave the same message (or vice-versa). Its annoying as I constantly have to clear their messages from two places. And also, its the year 2010 - both my phones show me who's called so I have no idea why its necessary to leave two messages that say the same thing. When I asked one of them once, they answered that they wanted to speak to me right away, and since I didn't answer the cell they thought they'd try home. Still a little annoying (um, I'm not deaf so if I didn't answer the cell I was probably busy, why would I answer the home phone then) but ok, whatever.
Would like to tell both these friends to just leave one message. Was thinking of sending them both a seperate email and letting them know I changed my home phone plan to a very basic plan to keep DSL and 911 alive only (which I did, since I just got a smartphone and upgraded that plan), and would like for them to only call the cell phone and leave a message there only.
Does that come across as rude? If they continue to call the home phone line do I ignore it (still have answering machine hooked up to it).
