Vonage Cancellation Headaches > Huh?

Huh?

I blame the phone company for making us pay $25 for a 'basic' phone line.

What other charges to pay on top of that? What's the total phone bill you pay each month?

FYI

My bill with Verizon goes like this:

$9.85 - Dial tone one line
$7.ish - Caller ID
$1.00 - about 10 phone calls
$21.+ - Fees and taxes
----------
$40ish for few phone calls

I would like to know how much is Vonage after fee/taxes

mine is $32 after taxes and fees.

$37.60 for Call Vantage because I have extra services. Without these, about $33.

I'm sorry I lied a little.

It's actually $18.26

Dial tone line 6.97
Federal sub. line chg 6.25
Non published line fee 2.75
USF fee .73

Fed excise tax .48
PA relay surcharge 1.00
E911 1.56

Total = 18.26

Now this is a completely stripped down line I use only for incoming calls, and toll free calls. No caller ID, no 3 way, nothing. All calls are charged a per minute rate, and no LD.

If I didn't have the unpublished number (I have the number unpublished due to my profession. Come to think of it, I think I just found a new write off
!) The total would be $15.51 a month.

I went back to POTS for 2 reasons. First was my terrible 911 experience with Vonage. Second, I never used my home phone for anything other than 800 calls and 911, so why not get a POTS line and have the reliability of it?

If I had a scanner, I could scan my last bill for you to prove it, but I don't...
