Britain is on track to make more calls on mobile phones than on land lines for the first time, according to an analysis of official data.

Experts believe that by the end of the summer people will spend an average of 168 minutes on their mobile phone, outstriping the number of minutes on a landline.

One recent survey suggested that 72 per cent of people would prefer to losetheir wallet than their mobile phone.
Though mobile phone technology dates back to the 1940s, the first mobile phonecall in Britain did not happen until January 1985, and they started to takeoff until the 1990s when digital technology was introduced, which allowedtext messaging.

Which?, the consumer watchdog, said that while increasingly sophisticated mobile phones are beneficial to consumers many people will be left behind.

Ceri Stanaway, telecoms expert at Which?, said: “I am not surprised by these figures at all, but I do worry that some people, by relying solely on their mobile phone, are losing out.

Ernest Doku, technology expert at uSwitch, said: “Despite fewer people now relying on their landline and preferring to have a mobile point of contact, there will always be a core set of users, such as the elderly, who are less likely to embrace new technology and are therefore likely to remain reliant on their landlines.”
