Voiceline Text Messaging Retirement Questions

Very glad to see the retiring text announcement. - You say no more texting FROM the App or Text web page, but . . . . - What about INCOMING text messages? - Can incoming texts still make my C'cast non-cell phone ring? - Will they get a “not accepting” message? - Is the retirement complete or partial for voiceline Text Messaging ? - Is it clear that this does not affect text messaging on Comcast Wireless cell phones? - Why not just let individual customers opt out of In and Out Texts? - Why do we have to wait 2 months?

And notice they aren't going to reduce our bill either.  Less service for the same (if not more) cost. Doesn't sound like it's very beneficial to the end user...but COMCAST is all about the bottom line.

If you want the ability to send/receive text messages, as well as make phone calls, without having to get a cell phone, just create a free Google account and use their GoogleVoice service for free. They'll issue you a number, and you'll have phone, text, and voicemail service all for free. You can either access the GoogleVoice website with your computer's nternet browser and make or receive calls/texts from there, or download the GoogleVoice app (which is also free) on a tablet or on an old deactivated smartphone. Basically you'd have a smartphone that oporated off wi-fi rather than cell towers.
