Bell South Cuts DSL Regulatory Fee

BellSouth announced that it is immediately eliminating a fee assessed on its DSL Internet services. The broadband fee was designed to recover a number of costs remaining from previous regulatory obligations and other network expenses. Since the FCC eliminated the continuing applicability of many of these regulations, BellSouth announced it could cut the rates.

The vast majority of BellSouth's DSL Internet service customers will see this change on their bills within a week, although it will take up to six weeks to implement this change for all of BellSouth's DSL Internet service customers. Any payments attributable to this fee will be credited back to August 16, 2006.
