You have to wait for your bill to arrive until you see what you're really paying. Sprint does supply these estimates of fees added on to the advertised rates: »nextelonline.nextel.com/ ··· up.shtml Rates & Fees: Monthly charges exclude taxes, Sprint Surcharges [incl. USF charge of up to 14.10% (varies quarterly), Administrative Charge (up to $1.99/line/mo.), Regulatory Charge ($0.40/line/mo.) & state/local fees by area]. Sprint Surcharges are not taxes or gov't-required charges and are subject to change. Sprint chooses to collect Washington State B&O Fee of 0.471% of your monthly billed charges to recover its costs. Details: sprint.com/taxesandfees. This gets you in the ballpark and when I signed up for Sprint this past summer, they gave me the fees Added on when I asked them. USF fees constantly change and state & local sales taxes and excise taxes vary by location.

The better question is....why do we need to get in their face to have this be the #1 priority? Why in god's name has this not already been taken care of? It is mind-boggling to me
