Verizon has a service called Wireless Home Phone, I think it used to be called Home Phone Connect. Basically a cellular modem, use just like a VoIP ATA except it doesn't need broadband. Can port the landline number. Most of the people I've run into who have it are older, and some seem to think they still have a landline.

Huge issues with them in NY as well. One thing that may help a bit is having the county 911 director call on your behalf. Since there is no jail time for execs in the company when things like this are failed to be acted on, nothing gets done. Put one or two market managers in jail for failing to respond in ample time and things might change. They always promise and give lip service but nothing gets done. We have similar situations in rural NY, politicians, state PSC and such riding them hard still gets no movement. They still want that USF money though.....

Here in Illinois we have the Illinois Commerce Commission that seems to be able to get the ILEC Moving in very short order. I have an elderly Aunt who lives by herself with no Cell phone. Some road work cut her phone line a few months ago, and she is still running off a temporary above ground line strung across a road between trees, and lays across her grass. It keeps getting continually disconnected from the pedestal, by what seems like Frontier techs. Frontier is always very nice, and saying that it will be fixed soon, but soon has been a couple months. Is there a state agency that could get things running?
