First, Sonic bundles internet service with their phone service (Fusion package) and you can't opt out even if you don't want a phone service. The taxes and fees for the phone service adds up quick (>$10).

Having had both AT&T and Sonic.net, I can assure you that AT&T telephone taxes are the same.

No, when I had at&t they allowed internet-only which had $0 taxes. Sonic doesn't allow internet-only.

There are no taxes on Sonic.net Internet. The taxes on AT&T telephone service are mostly the same as the taxes on Sonic.net Internet telephone service.

The point though is that you cant get a dry line from sonic. You have to get internet and phone, and therefore charged phone taxes on the line regardless if you ever use it.
