| did it get rid of this?
so is this supposed to get rid of the "franchise fee" that a company pays to a city, just to have it show up as a hidden cost/fee on my bill, or more blatantly printed out like charter did for mine back when i lived in SC? |

| It won't. You'll still have that fee either the State is in charge of Franchise fees or the Cities/towns/county/ twp or who ever. Companies actually show this as an itemized charged. I've never seen it not shown. Although we have no clue what the Telco's charge for in their "fees and taxes".
But it's not suppose to get rid of the fee. It's suppose to "help" get rid of the extortion that cities what Telco's to pay in order to provide video. It won't affect cable companies any since the new rules only apply to "new" video providers. |
