Most customers are within the boundary of a Local Exchange Carrier with a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity issued by the state public utilitity regulators. And, they are typically the COLR or POLR Provider (Carrier) Of Last Resort. Being such they cannot refuse to provide a POTS line.

Where was the location that a POLR did not exist? Almost all of Utah has a POLR. The only places open, don't have any people living in them, like out in the desert on BLM land.

They don't require a computer anymore.

I have some customers with POTS lines that have had far more issues than any of my magicJack customers.

If you can get a POTS line for only $20/mo the that would be great, but this customer didn't have that option.

Thank you,

Who wouldn't prefer a magicjack connected to a random desktop?
