The absolute balls on ISPs even complaining about that. I can’t even imagine charging people these fees and then basically saying “we charge our customers so many fees that we don’t actually know what the fees are, we just know we are getting every single penny we can put of them.”.
Also the balls on people who are downvoting this post. It’s like these people want to be charged more money without knowing why. Mind boggling how some don’t Like transparency
Imagine if the FCC didn’t say this. How much more everyone would be gouged without knowing why
Exactly. If you're unable to explain the fee, then you're unable to prove it's a justified one
I'd like them to take it a step further and for each of those fees ask why it isn't a part of the base price.
Agreed. It's actually a simple choice for them. Either explain every single item on the list, or advertise the real price of their service in all commercials and so on.
I'm guessing that they want to eat their cake and save it. Or maybe more accurately: keep their cake and eat yours...
