I asked him and he said the service he used was bought out by myfax.com.
He said he was grandfathered in at a lower price.
But, feel free to check out their current service.

that, but have never found one.

I have Cox for Internet, Phone and Cable.
Several months ago I was getting irritated with the high cost of
the land line phone portion of my bill. What I did was to get a
Google voice number, which provided me with free long distance and
voice mail (as well a many other excellent features - all for
free). I then dropped all the "bells & whistles" and long distance
service from my land line and simply have a basic line w/Caller
ID. The cost for this land line is $11.75 line fee + $5.95 for
caller ID. The rest is various taxes. Total land line = $28 /month.
If someone calls my land line directly (instead of my Google #), I
have an answering machine to handle that.
If you really want to get lean, drop your land line altogether and
have your Google voice number simply route to your calls to your
cell phone.
As far as fax service, there is absolutely no need to have a
dedicated fax line and machine these days. There are so many
online services available for so cheap that it doesn't pay to
"host" it yourself. My brother receives hundreds of faxes each
month and he pays $2-3 per month flat rate. To send a fax, he
simply sends an email to the hosting service and they fax it
appropriately (although the need for sending faxes is getting
exceedingly rare).
Hope this helps.

Are there any alternatives to Qwest for land-line telephone
and DSL service?
Qwest has just raised their rates and I think some of the
charges are
unreasonable, particularly for voice mail and the portion of
the DSL
service that goes to M$ (which is the most irritating since I
don't use M$
for anything).
For the land-line phone service, I pay $37.99/month which
includes a
second land-line and voice-mail for one line. But then they
charge $6.20
for each of the two lines for "Federal Access Charge"
(probably can't do
anything about that). But for voice mail on the second line,
they charge
an additional $7.95/month plus $3.95 for an extension mailbox.
That part
seems excessive to me. Surely there must be some other good
alternatives.
The broadband charges show as $38.00 for Qwest Connect Platinum
plus $16.99 for Qwest Connect PLTNM w MSFT, less "bundle savings"
of $5.00/month and a promotional discount of $15.00/month.
So $54.99 - $20.00 = $34.99/month.
Any suggestions?
