Do all of the telcos get to dump the fusf fee?
Am I soon to see this bogus (yet predictible) fee from ATT? |

| trendsetters like Verizon qualify these fee's as LEGIT BUSINESS.
I just dont think these companies have the capacity to see what their doing is wrong and bending (figure-fouring) the rules. They see it as "business as usual".
"For any normal business, if your basic costs go up, you simply increase the prices you charge. You don't add in some random meaningless and totally unexplained "fee" to cover those costs. Unless, of course, you're trying to pretend you keep lowering prices so that you can claim to lawmakers that there really is competition in a market where there is very little."
I must say the news submitter has a keen eye for powerful quotes. 
This quote speaks volumes!

As of now the FUSF is dead. It wont appear anymore, and currently there is no mention of SBC/ATT charging the fee in any other form. It is simply just gone off the bill as of 8/14/06... |
