Using cm500 with phone as part of package

I have the triple play from optimum. This includes the phone service that I have no use for but I get an overall better price deal
I was told that since the cm500 doesn't support phone, optimum fails to activate the modem when it tried to activate phone service.

Had anyone seen a work around to keep triple play and be able to activate this modem?
