What is the Service Fee that appears on my bill?
Verizon Online is assessed the fee by its suppliers (which actually provide the network services that enable Verizon Online to provide DSL services).
Effective August 14, 2006, Verizon High Speed Internet will stop charging the FUSF (Federal Universal Service Fund) recovery fee. We will stop being assessed this fee by our DSL network suppliers. Therefore, we will no longer be recovering this fee from our customers. The impact of the elimination of the FUSF fee is as follows: for customers of Verizon Online with service up to 768Kbps service, the fee eliminated is $1.25 a month; for customers of Verizon Online with service up to 1.5 Mbps or 3Mbps, the fee eliminated is $2.83 a month (based on current FUSF surcharge amounts).
