If a webmail provider asks you for your cellphone number do you give it?

No, I certainly wouldn’t. Too much information about me is out there already.

If I am asked I give my old neighbors cell with instructions to keep trying if no answer.

I give @Cruiser‘s number with instructions to keep trying if no answer. And to try after midnight.

Dangit @chyna! Now I will have them send you as Dixieland Band if no answer!

Not any more. I did it once and was immediately sent a slew of text messages. The only way to stop it was to call the cell phone carrier. I think they credited the charges incurred. Lesson learned.

I always give fake phone numbers if they require that I enter one. I get enough wrong numbers and automatic calling services calling me already!

I do when it’s necessary for confirmation of the account, otherwise, no.

No. If it’s a requirement I will look elsewhere for another email provider.
