What taxes are being applied to my bill?

Taxes and fees

The "Taxes and Fees" section of your bill includes sales, excise, and other taxes and government surcharges that we are required by law to collect from customers on behalf of local, state, and the federal government. These taxes, surcharges, and fees may change from time to time without notice.

Other charges

The "Other Charges" section of your bill includes federal and state universal service fund (USF) assessments, which may vary since each quarter the government updates the amount that companies are required to pay into the federal USF. The amount we pass on to our customers will not exceed the rate set by the government.
