He checks his email on his phone by navigating to a website.

I'm sure there are places where the internet isn't reliable or consistent enough. But almost all broadband internet is faster than ISDN (128kbps) .

I'm pretty sure that there are more reasons than bandwidth for them to require the ISDN line
