This constant name-calling ("fraudster") and silly allegations of criminal fraud are only reflecting on you.
Once again, why don't you read what I said instead of starting out with your argument and ignoring the facts? Here's what I said:

"It all depends on how the utility defines "residential" and "commercial" use. The point is that if you had a standalone business on a standalone property and a phone line used for primarily for business use, and you claimed the "residential" rate, it would be fraud, yes."

Did I not say that it depends on how the utility is defining residential/commercial use? So that if they define the use based upon the purpose and zoning of the structure, then so long as you're honest about that fact you're not engaged in fraud? But if you tell the phone company it's a house, when in reality it's a commercial office building, then you've misled the vendor and engaged in fraudulent behavior. The point is not the factual details of a specific phone vendor - it's the concept of having a split rate structure based on what you're using the product for that I am illustrating.

As for the "constant name-calling," should I go back and pull all the names I've been called on this thread, and all the personal invective that's been thrown my way? Notice that if you don't accuse me of ulterior motives, or call my positions absurd, I respond in kind. I mean, you tell me to stop the constant name-calling, then call me and my opinion "silly" in the next breath. Grow up.
