No Tiger Content - Your Phone Bill

Just received my long distance and local phone bill, and was
amazed that I owed $5.51 for one 25 cent phone call.  The
long distance carrier gave me a bunch of lies about those
charges, and the local service was no help at all.

I called the FCC and they e-mailed me about 5 explanatory
messages about what the charges are, should be, and what to
do about it.

Turns out I was being overcharged and lied to about fees,
taxes, surcharges, minimums, and all the promises they made
to sign me up ('the contract') were being arbitrarily
changed.

If anyone wants a copy of the FCC replies, I'll forward
them, or bundle them and put them on the list (labeled NO
TIGER CONTENT).

They total 87K of info, so they aren't huge.

Your desires?

Steve
