Here's some information from US West to help you better understand what you're paying for when you send in your monthly phone payment. We've also included a few helpful hints and things to watch for to make sure you're not being overcharged or billed for services you don't need, or don't want. The Public Utilities Commission has set up a web sight to answer ALL of your questions. You can access their web sight to find the answers to your US West, and phone bill questions click here . Be aware of double billing.
Computers can, and often do make mistakes.
Check your phone bill carefully to make sure you're not being charged double for basic service, taxes, or any of the other miscellaneous charges that might appear on your phone bill either in the regulated or unregulated portion of the bill. Double check the unregulated charges. The unregulated charges consist of various charges that are not required by any federal or local governmental agency. Avoid Source-Pay calls. This is an optional service and again, unless you approve the charges, you need to notify US West immediately to have the charges removed.
