The FCC Will Investigate Verizon’s Ridiculous $2 Online Payment Fee

The FCC Will Investigate Verizon's Ridiculous $2 Online Payment Fee Verizon's announcement that hey, no biggie, but they're going to charge you two dollars a month just for paying your bill online didn't just catch our attention. It's also apparently perked up a few ears at the FCC, where hopefully glorious, government-appointed justice will rain down on our carrier oppressors.

Or at least a very stern talking to. [NY Times]
