Funny thing is the big AT&T's of the world will raise rates to supposedly cover the expense of these type of calls, and when they go away do you think AT&T and the others will lower rates back? Heck no. Just like the "Fuel surcharge" that has been put on my trash pickup and most delivery services when gas was $4 a gallon. Now it's back to $2 something a gallon and I'm still paying these surcharges. Don't even get me started on the toll roads in Chicago!
