Re: So what!
But at least that's legitimate. I hate it when you call up a phone company for a quote, and it's invariably 30-50% lower than the actual bill.
Also, it would get rid of the various $40/month unlimited service plans that actually cost $75/month.
That way you could compare phone charges. I mean, I have to ask, why is there a $6 a month line fee when the company OWNS the lines? That is clearly actually part of the service charge, so instead of quoting $12/month basic local service, quote what it is $18/month...
Doesn't make the ads so good sounding though.
All around, I want a law that whatever you advertise a product for, that's the cash I *pay* when I walk out with it. Not + delevery, tax, surcharge, handling, etc... |

Even once the legal speak and loopholes are closed, we the consumers aren't going to see smaller bills. The regular service price will just go up.
