Re: Franchise fee

said by Austinloop See Profile :

"the 5% franchise fee is simply being pushed through to consumers"

And how is this different from any telco or cableco in the country??

Check your bills from AT&T, TW, Comcast, etc and see if there isn't some sort of fee on it that goes to cover the franchise fee.
There is no franchise fee for telephone and internet, just the tv so far.

Check your bills.

 Sorry, misread the bill, however that doesn't change that the franchise fees are passed thru from my ex-provider, TW. I guess this is what I thought was the franchise fee on my bill:

Municipal Charge 1.25

Anyway, another fee that gets passed along just like every other fee put on the telco and cableco.
