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.

I'd do the same in a heart-beat, IF I had that option. Spectrum has been sneaking UP our rate .50 cents to $3.00 every 4 months. Next bill it'll be $85 a month. I have no other good options, beyond TDSNET DSL, which SUCKS, and is locked down pretty good on things they don't think you should have access to... Plus, you have to also pay for a monthly land-line AND the DSL internet.

our bills kept jumping up every month.. ofcourse no deals so we canceled. ofcourse they wanted to know our deal we got we told em. they said they can't touch that. what really pissed me off is the rep in tech support said there was an update. i told him i ran my own hardware and asked him if that would be an issue. he said no and he bricked my modem into a bootloop!!!
