Seriously, I pay a monthly fee for a phone line and then another fee for having the subscription to a phone line. Kill off the EUCLC because all I am doing it paying for the same line twice.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21272100 Wed, 15 Oct 2008 15:38:39 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21270879 Sammer : "Martin and AT&T's proposal involves raising the cap on the "subscriber line charge" paid on your monthly bills from $6.50 to $8.00 or $8.50 per month (telcos have been trying to hike this to $10 for years). The FCC Subscriber Line Charge, sometimes called the End User Common Line Charge, is, by the FCC's own definition "not a government charge or tax"; it goes right back to the bells, and is a handy way to raise rates via a below the line fee while keeping advertised rates the same."

Whatever it is called the government shouldn't be supporting false advertising and the Line Charge should meet its long overdue and well deserved demise.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21270879 Wed, 15 Oct 2008 12:14:58 EDT
