What about VOIPs?

There are a few key differences between landline and VoIP phone systems. The most obvious difference is that VoIP uses the internet to make calls, while landlines use copper wires. This means that VoIP calls can be made anywhere there’s an internet connection, while landline calls are restricted to certain geographical areas.

It's best to create an opt-in profile and include all manners of preferred communications, be it land lines, cell phones, emails and even a fax number!
