Re: Raising Rates.. but not raising rates...

Hello All,
I received this very same email from ELNK who advised that the 5.00 is a charge to recover the cost of connecting to the Telecommunications network. It does NOT specify whether its for my DSL service or for my telephone service. It does say that my "base monthly service charge" -Still out on just what they mean by that statement-will not change. I'll know when I see my bill for Oct if it goes up another $5.00. BTW, I do have the LPV phone service that Dr. Olds references. I just hope that ELNK stays solvent in the midst of their business model situation because my alternatives are scary here in my neck of the woods (SF Bay area). You'd think that services would be good in Silicon Valley- Don't bet on it. Comcast, Verizon and AT&T are all sub-par services providers that will nickel and dime you to death as well for "misc. fees"
