Re: class action suit time

It really is class action lawsuit time.
A class action suit won't do squat.

Even if one was brought, the typical result will be the lawyers getting a huge winning, and Verizon giving coupons to the class for a discount on their next Verizon purchase, or something silly like a 3 cent credit on their next bill.
I agree, Verizon customers would be left to foot the bill to make a couple of lawyers rich. This is the job of the FCC. The problem is, aside from a strongly worded letter, they don't seem to want to do their job. Unless "must have ability to write strongly worded, official sounding letters and then wash your hands of the matter" is in their job description?

I would imagine there must be some law being broken here. We have so many laws that there has to be one that covers this. But you're right, a law is only meaningful if it is enforced.

I still take the position that any fees that are not the result of a government tax must be included in the advertised price of service, just like with any other purchase people make.

The FCC would need to enforce that... oh wait...
