UScellular^® charges its customers a Regulatory Cost Recovery Fee to defray the costs of regulatory compliance and this fee may change from time to time. The fee includes, but is not limited to, number pooling, local number portability, wireless local number portability, E-911, CPNI, Federal Telecommunications Relay Services, Federal Regulatory Fees, tower mandate costs and reductions in available Universal Service Funding which had been used to offset some of the costs of operating networks in the UScellular Eligible Telecommunication territories. UScellular is not required by law to charge this fee. The fee is applied based on the active Service Plan on the bill date. The Regulatory Cost Recovery Fee may also include costs incurred in prior years that have not been fully recovered.
UScellular also charges an Administrative Fee that is intended to recover some of the expenses it must pay to others in order to provide service to you. The fee is applied based on the active Service Plan on the bill date. UScellular is not required by law to charge this fee. These expenses include:
- Taxes assessed on facilities used to provide wireless service.
- Property taxes imposed on cell site locations.
- Rent or similar expenses associated with cell site locations and other physical facilities housing equipment used within our network.
- Utility expenses incurred to operate the network.
- Costs paid to other telecommunication companies for the transport and termination of calls and data sessions.
Current unlimited plans charge a monthly service fee for unlimited minutes, messages, and data. If not on our unlimited plan, your plan will factor in allocated plan minutes, messages, and/or data in addition to your monthly service fee. Additional charges you may incur:
- Using international roaming or other optional features, or making international calls.
- A late-payment charge is applied to your bill when the previous month's bill has not been paid in full, leaving a previous amount due carried forward. The late-payment charge is included in the total amount due on the current bill.
- A one-time device activation charge.
- Normal taxes will apply for your wireless service based on the address on the account, just as they would for your existing other utilities such as electricity.
- A federal Universal Service Fund fee is included with each UScellular line. Started in 1988, all carriers, including UScellular, were required to contribute to this fund, which was created to ensure quality, affordable service for all consumers, especially those in rural areas, as well as schools, libraries, and hospitals.
- A state Universal Service Fund surcharge is included in some states. This surcharge helps subsidize specialized telecommunications programs and provides discounts to low-income families.
- While we’ll never charge you for 911 calls, your state may require us to charge a state-variant fee to help fund access to emergency services in your area.
