Re: [Lingo] Complain here about 18% in new fees/ta OK, I'm thinking of writing my own letter, but had a question.
Lingo says:
What is the Federal Excise Tax?
Lingo is required by Federal law to collect a 3% federal excise tax on the amount which it charges its customers for all communication services. This tax applies to monthly subscription fees as well as to any additional usage charges.
Does federal law require this, or is Lingo just lying? If false, I'm surprised that they would just lie outright.
Also, in order for the changes NOT to be profitable for Lingo nearly 1 in 10 customers would have to drop the service. I wonder how many people just believe what Lingo has said is true. |
