Q. What is the Federal Universal Service Fee? |
| A. The 1996 Telecommunications Act requires all long distance companies to contribute a portion of their revenues to the Federal Universal Service Fund which provides discounted telecommunications services to schools, libraries and low income consumers. Our Federal Universal Service Fee is a charge on state-to-state and international monthly long distance charges, which is used to help contribute to this fund. This charge will appear separately on your bill. This percentage rate may change from time to time based on the rates set by the FCC. |
