T-Mobile Fees
I've had the same phone plan since I switched to a G1 back in Oct of 2008. I have a grandfathered time and text voice plan and an unlimited data plan. As a result unless I'm traveling and incurring roaming charges, my "Monthly Recurring Charges" have been the same for the last 18 months. However, during that time the "Other Charges" and "Taxes & Surcharges" have gone up from $3.86 to $6.47!
Here's a little historical breakdown:
| Due Date | Other Charges | Taxes & Surcharges |
|---|---|---|
| Jan 2009 | Regulatory Program Fees: 0.86 | Federal Universal Service Fund: 0.68 State Sales Tax: 1.57 State 911: 0.75 |
| Jun 2009 | Regulatory Program Fees: 0.86 | Federal Universal Service Fund: 0.64 State Sales Tax: 1.57 State 911: 0.75 |
| Jan 2010 | Regulatory Program Fees: 1.21 | Federal Universal Service Fund: 0.59 State Sales Tax: 1.99 State 911: 0.75 |
| Jun 2010 | Regulatory Program Fees: 1.21 | Federal Universal Service Fund: 0.94 State Sales Tax: 3.57 State 911: 0.75 |
The recent changes in State Sales Tax is confusing me the most. It's like they changed what they collect sales tax on. Anyone else seeing strange fees?
