That would cause major competition among service providers to get you on their network, thus driving down prices. Think 1980's when AT&T (Ma Bell) was broken up and you could use Sprint or another long distance carrier.

(Blank cell) Otherwise, it calculates the years:  DATEDIF( cellReference ,TODAY(),"D")/365.2425) DATEDIF compares two dates. The first date is your cell reference i.e.: (A1) The second is the current date according to your computer, iOS device: TODAY()  returning the Day -  "D" Then the difference is divi...
