As a European I'll never cease to find it mind blowing that it is normal for a Americans that the cost to them of damn near everything is more than the cost initially shown to them.

This is why the ISPs don't want to do it. The FCC told them:

Providers are free, of course, to not pass these fees through to consumers to differentiate their pricing and simplify their Label display if they believe it will make their service more attractive to consumers and ensure that consumers are not surprised by unexpected charges.

The ISPs refuse to eat the costs of doing business. They know people will shit when they see all the fees that customers do not need to pay are being charged to them.

There will be lawsuits when the fees are listed.

Aww it's too hard.. well make it simpler by not charging shitty little fees.

If it's too hard to list them, it must be even harder to charge and bill them.

My ISP has no problem breaking out the fees.

And.... I am indeed, in the US.

So, not seeing the issue here.

Here's a wild idea, simplify your pricing. Anyways, it's cool to see the FCC stand for the citizens every now and then.

If they can charge for something then they can adequately explain what the thing is they're charging for

Wasn't too much effort to add them to the bills of millions of people...

Okay everybody - this is one of those good things that the Biden Administration and Democrats are doing to properly run government.

It is also something that most people will not know about. Why? Because it's not a simple sound bite.

So my homework to all of us is to make sure our friends and Neighbors who are complaining about government not doing anything for us to point this and similar things out to them.

Real benefits, real work is almost never easily described in sound bites. So many people believe the Democrats don't do what they say they're going to do because getting s*** done is too complicated for most people.

So we finally got rid of Ajat eh?

Wtf is happening in the US? Here I get an advertised monthly price for my subscription, I set up a direct deposit for that exact amount, when I buy it, then forget about it.

Maybe there is a commencement fee one time for the equipment they give me or work they do, but that's all.

How is it legal to advertise and agree on a price, then send random bills?

One of those weird, rare situations where Google seems to do something right. They said the cost was $100, and every month I pay $100. I'm assuming fees are built into that, but my bill never deviates from the price I was told, which is really all I care about.

Comcast is sad that it can't fuck us in hidden fees anymore. I feel terrible...just terrible for them.

If you can't list em, you shouldn't be able to charge for em

Paying every fee is even harder.

So let's stop doing that as well.

Based FCC

Couldn’t happen to a better bunch.

I bought a plane ticket this week and it had all the fees listed. If airlines can do it, so can any multi-national corporation.
