“Explaining
the Increase in the Federal Subscriber Line Charge on Your Telephone
Bill” (Information to assist South Slope Cooperative Members)
“Commonly referred to as the “subscriber
line charge” on your bill, this charge is part of the FCC’s ongoing
effort to promote a competitive framework for the U.S. telecommunications
industry.” This fee is
regulated and capped by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), not
by state public utility commissions. It is not a tax or a fee charged by
the government. The purpose of the charge is to ensure that all Americans
can afford at least a minimal level of basic telephone service, regardless
of a rural or urban location. 2.
