In Rhode Island I get dipped about $2 a month to support our E-911
system. Used to be on Vonage I didn't get charged for that but when they
opened Vonage up to E-911 services here we got to pay for it again.
Matter of fact I now pay $8 in taxes in fees on my VoIP connection, but
it's still way cheaper than using Verizon for the same services.
Yes I know, there are those who say I have to pay for the broadband
connection but that connection gets used for more than just telephone
services.
