It you leave your phone is airplane mode, you won't pay roaming
charges since it is not pinging the tower.

My phone only goes about 9 hours on a charge, so I leave it off.

That is why I like my dumb as a rock phone (Samsung Convoy). The
battery lasts for days, 24/7 normal mode and even longer in airplane
mode.


It might be different if anyone called you.


I use about 20 minutes a year.

My outgoing message is "Don't bother leaving a message, I never check
them. Call me at home".
90% of the time my cell is on a shelf in the closet.
As I said, I only take it when I travel.


If the message wasn't left by my wife, I never listen to more than the
name of the person who called and the return phone number which of
course I can now get off the call log.

I hate long phone messages.
