What a rip off! I think it's dead wrong to be charging custo ...[text shortened]... des, their service is terrible because the sound and reception is bad.
What do you think?

I think you'll learn to accept it, and quietly pay your bill, month after month, as we all do when a company rapes our checkbook with nonsense charges, knowing we've made their services a necessity.

I took a stand against the phone company years ago, after they started recovering costs for tax deductible charitable contributions they made, by adding another monthly charge to customer bills.

Had lots of threats and choice words, and demanded they shut off my service. Had to eat humble pie a couple weeks later, and pay additionally to have it turned back on. It sucks, being so dependent.
