| You need a lawyer on retainer. Several years ago I was the Telecommunications Manager for one of the largest ISP's in Florida, I was responsible for approving all invoices from our Broadband Service Providers. One carrier added a $900+ Real Estate Recovery Fee to their Broadband Invoice with no prior notice. In view of the fact that we had a Two Year contract with the Service Provider and that fee was not included in the contract, our corporate lawyers made quick work reversing the fee. I did not do so well when about 6 Years ago AT+T added a $3.99+ Tax In State Connection Fee to my already monthly rate of $12.99. Therefore my Long Distance Access Cost was about $17.00 before I made one Long Distance call. I protested to AT+T and the Florida Public Service Commission and got no where. Not long thereafter my contract with AT+T Wireless expired. I signed up with Sprint PCS and transferred my land line Long Distance Carrier to the Sprint 50 Minutes Free plan. The best part of the whole transaction was AT+T calling me whining about the fact that I dropped their Long Distance and Wireless Service. AT+T's representatives finally stopped calling, asking me to switch back, when I told one of there representatives to F#@K Off. These uncharges will never stop until our government passes laws prohibiting these fraudulent and misleading practices.
