Subscriber Line Charge
Comcast does not charge federal or state subscriber line charges for its XFINITY Voice service, providing great savings for the customer. The Federal Communications Commission has authorized regulated telephone companies to assess a federal Subscriber Line Charge to cover a portion of the costs of their local networks. Many regulated telephone companies, including most regional Bell operating companies, assess this fee, which can range up to $6.50 per month, per line or greater. Additionally, some state public utilities commissions permit regulated telephone companies to assess an additional state Subscriber Line Charge to compensate for part of the companies’ costs of providing the local network associated with state services. XFINITY Voice customers can avoid these costly federal or state Subscriber Line Charges.
