kudos:5 | Sprint doubled their surcharge fees on wireless plan I got my monthly bill for the 450 min/mo everything data plan and the surcharges went from $1.39 to $2.78. Sprint admits these charges are not required by law. So that makes them below the line charges. The FCC USF charge stayed the same.
April:
Federal-Univ Serv Assess Non-LD $1.69
Administrative Charge $0.99
Regulatory Charge $0.40
--------------
$3.08
May:
Federal-Univ Serv Assess Non-LD $1.69
Administrative Charge $1.98
Regulatory Charge $0.80
--------------
$4.47

Steamboat Springs, CO | when Sprint increases any of their surcharges, they open themselves up to allowing customers to cancel term plans and leave without penalty. |

Do you have an Airave? Mine went up too, because Sprint assigned a phone number to the Airave. |

I also saw why Sprint MAY have given all the Airaves a phone number - it shows up in their qtrly financial report as additional lines added to Sprint's system. Sounds like a little financial skullduggery to me phonying up info for Wall St.
