Everyone who answered so far are positively evil!!!!!
Who waits for the phone to ring 3 times before answering it?
I personally begin walking towards the phone when I first hear it ring, and then answer it. Why would you purposefully wait and cause both you and the person on the opposite end to waste time? OMG this is a total outrage!

It depends how far away from the phone I am. If I am close, I'll pick it up on the 2nd ring. If I have to go all the way upstairs to answer it, it might ring 4 times before I can get to it.

I don't pick up my house phone often unless there is nobody at home. My friends call me on the mobile phone. I would it ring about 2 times if i am near it.

We have one phone upstairs and one phone downstairs. When the phone rings I usually go running for it because it always seems to be in the room furthest from wherever I am. If I don't catch it in 3 rings, it goes to voicemail.

I usually wait for three rings because I don't know...I just think it sounds right...Better than 1 or 2 or 4. I just like the ring to it.
Hope this helps you.

If I don't pick it up by 4 to 5 rings, it goes to voice mail, so if I want to answer it, I do it as quickly as possible.

At least twice so the caller ID will show who it is and I can decide if I want to speak to them.
Just because I pay for a phone does not obligate me to answer it.
