Re: Bill aims to limit wireless early termination fees This bill is a stupid idea.
ETFs are entirely optional fees that can be skipped or prevented if one doesn't feel like paying it. Get a prepaid phone or pay the full price of a phone and there will be no ETF.
Instead of going after a fee that only dings a few people who are too lazy to read the contracts that they sign, why not go after all the hidden "unfees" that are not taxes that get tacked onto your bill every month? I'd mandate that the advertised price of service is the price you pay, less any government-imposed taxes, just like any other purchase you make.
Even though this would mean the advertised price of service would increase, it would help people to better compare the prices of service and make a better informed decision about which cell provider to choose.
