Federal Universal Service Fund charge

rpopil over 2 years ago

Under phone charges, Federal Universal Service Fund charge went from $1.49 last month to $22.19 this month! Why?

Universal Service Fees are mandated by the Federal Government and assessed under rules developed by the FCC to support universal service for schools, libraries, and rural health care facilities. It is calculated as a percentage of your total monthly long distance charges.
