It's like getting nickled and dimed to death sometimes. Consumers are more and more frustrated by the ever-growing number of add-on fees and surcharges that show up on their phone bills. It's like a "bait and switch", where the real price of service is significantly higher than the advertised price once all of the add-ons are added up. Some of the charges are real government taxes; but others are nothing more than payments to the phone company to cover their costs of doing business.
