Gee, you didn't mention the reimbursement of a portion of our property taxes fee now replaced by the flat $0.99/month all inclusive recoupment of operational costs fee. I got to the point where I was tired of all the nickel and diming so I've left Sprint.

Yup, I just left Sprint 3 days ago after finding the new $0.99 property tax reimbursement fee. I rarely use my landline long distance so normally paid $0.71/month, and the new fee increased that by over 150%. So I called Sprint, where the agent flat out lied that the new fee was a "tax" and read a script saying it was FCC mandated.
So I put the agent in his place for lying, cancelled my service, sent an e-mail to Sprint accusing them of decpetive practices (for fraudulantly claiming a rate increase was a govt. tax), and reported them to the FTC for the same.
**** scum phone companies.
