Charter claims they are going to provide better pricing

How are sales and use taxes allowed? The law clearly states "The ITFA now prohibits all state and local taxes on internet access."

The cost recovery fee is a different topic.

I wouldn't say they didn't get the memo, I would say they are ignoring it.

I would guess that they are piecing out some portion of the service and separating it from the internet for tax purposes. For example, they may be taxing the "Active Armor" service. State Sales Tax on $3.36 is $.21, so they may be charging $3.36 for the service.

Anyhow, that's why I asked the sales person if there were any taxes or fees added, so she would know what to expect on each monthly bill. I guess lying is just part of working in that industry.
