Anyone who has Verizon Wireless

Sounds good! I check the http://www.irs.gov/ Didn't see any update by now. Have you consulted this with tax attorney?

check this out...it's for long-distance, I didn't read anything on it about cell phones though...

I just saw that on my bill as well...

but I think the tax is going to be reimbursed for EVERYONE that was billed for it either through a long-distance carrier or wireless carrier, not just VW...so I'm going to post a link to this thread in a new topic now...

thanks for letting us all know! :)

So far, I have only seen it on the cell phone bill, but I am waiting for the phone bill to see if it says anything.

I am waiting for my phone bill. I will see what has to be done.

Hey,

Thanks for the heads up. Wow, that would be something if we can deduct this :D

don't get too excited. While the FET on Cellular and long distance communications was deemeded by a court to be improper, there is a new wave of taxes and fees assessed by the FCC that will soon take its place.

Of historical note, the FET was actually established in the late 1800's as a means to finance the Spanish-American war.

Clay, you just bursted my bubble. :lol:

The government never really give us money willingly

I think the spanish american war is over...maybe they should pay everyone back retroactive to the date it ended and was paid for?

Just to be fair, of course...
