Georgia’s landlines are being retired

There’s a simple way to keep your home phone

AT&T is shutting down parts of its landline network in at least 148 Georgia phone service areas. By the end of 2029, it plans to mostly phase out its traditional phone lines across the U.S.* Community Phone is a home phone that just works, without phone lines or internet. Plug it in, listen for the dial tone, and start making calls.

Built for Georgia

Georgia is unpredictable. Your phone shouldn’t be.

Storms cut off power without warning

Weather caused 98.8% of Georgia’s major power outages from 2000 to 2023, the nation’s second-highest share. Georgia has faced 134 billion-dollar weather disasters since 1980.* Community Phone’s backup battery keeps your phone working for 26 hours without power.

Rural Georgia has fewer options

274,000+ Georgia households have no internet subscription, and most addresses with no high-speed service available are in rural areas.* Community Phone’s industrial-grade antennas provide strong coverage with no internet, even where cell phones struggle to hold a signal.

*Sources: Census ACS 2024 1-year, S2801; Georgia broadband map, 2021.

Georgia is a top target for senior fraud

Georgians over 60 reported more than $220 million in fraud losses in 2025.* On average, Community Phone blocks 19,000+ scam calls per month in Georgia. For customers using the robocall filter, 43% of all incoming calls were caught as spam.

*Source: FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center, 2025 Annual Report.

Phone repairs take far too long

Georgia gives phone companies 24 hours to restore service. Sundays don’t count and cable repairs have no deadline.* With Community Phone there’s no wire to repair or technician to wait for. If you need help, talk to a real person in under a minute. No robots.

Georgia’s phone rates keep going up

Georgia stopped setting home phone rates in 1995 and loosened the remaining rules in 2010.* There’s no cap on internet-based phone service either; rates jump when promos end. Community Phone has a Three-Year Price Lock, no contract or hidden fees.

Georgia phone fact

In 1895, Ben and Lula Gleaton ran a telephone line from their home in Doles to Lula’s parents’ farm. They added a second line to Ben’s commissary, then strung more lines for nearby farmers.

In Georgia, the phone has always kept family and neighbors within reach. Today, more than 725,000 Georgia homes still have a home phone.* You can keep yours.

Frequently asked questions about Community Phone in Georgia

AT&T has been retiring parts of its traditional landline network in Georgia, one local area at a time. There is no single date when service will end statewide, so the timing depends on where you live. When a retirement would permanently end telephone service, AT&T must notify affected customers and obtain FCC authorization. Customers may be asked to switch to fiber, wireless, or another available phone service. Community Phone doesn’t use copper wire or internet, so none of this affects your service.

*Sources: AT&T Georgia copper-retirement notices; 47 CFR §63.71.

We have customers in 200+ Georgia cities and towns, across all 10 of the state’s area codes. Just enter your exact address and we’ll make sure there’s strong coverage where you live. The Phone Base uses industrial-grade antennas to pull in the strongest local tower, so calls stay clear even in rural areas where cell service is spotty. We confirm you have strong service before we ship anything. But if you still wind up feeling you’re not getting the coverage you expected, we’ll give you a full refund.

No, Community Phone is not a cell phone. It’s a home phone that sits on your table and plugs into a power outlet. Community Phone’s industrial-grade antennas pull in the strongest local tower, so calls stay clear where cell phones get spotty service.

Community Phone’s Home Plan starts at $45/mo, or $41.25/mo on the annual plan.
We also offer two other plans for your home:

Home Premium adds features such as call forwarding, number blocking and voicemail you can read as texts. It’s $59/mo, or $54.10/mo on the annual plan.

Loved Ones adds features such as voicemail transcriptions and managing an allowed list of trusted numbers. It’s $89/mo, or $81.60/mo on the annual plan.

The annual version of every plan includes one month free. Your rate is covered by our Three-Year Price Lock, and there’s no contract, so you can cancel anytime. Traditional providers lock you into long contracts and nickel-and-dime you with hidden fees. We don’t do either.

Before you pay a thing, we’ll confirm that you have strong coverage at your address. If you don’t, you get your money back.

Yes, you can keep your number and area code if you want to. We have customers across all 10 of Georgia’s area codes. If you decide to keep your number, we’ll help you transfer it over. We’ll call your phone company for you if we can. If your carrier needs to get the transfer PIN directly from you, keep your last phone bill handy and we’ll walk you through the call.

Easier than you think. All you need is a power outlet and, if you’re keeping your number, a recent phone bill.

  1. We ship you the Phone Base. One dedicated representative handles your switch from start to finish.
  2. Plug it into a power outlet and wait for the dial tone. 30 seconds, no tools, no technician, no internet.
  3. Plug in the phone you already have. If you like your handset, keep it.
  4. Keep your number. We’ll transfer it for you. If your carrier needs a transfer PIN, we’ll walk you through that call.

Chances are, we’re already in your Georgia neighborhood.

Whether you’re calling family from a farmhouse in the Wiregrass or checking in on your mom from a bungalow in Decatur, you get the same dial tone. Confirm coverage at your address.
