Can someone explain a “minor” (although financially major) confusion on my T-Mobile monthly bill? Thanks.

I have been going over my monthly cell phone bill and have noticed that I am being taxed just about everywhere – not to mention repetitive. On top of the $69.99 monthly service charge, I find that various taxes are added onto that. This I understand. As I move along on my bill I find that each number (I have two lines) is also given about three to four different taxes; some which are the same taxes which were added on to the monthly service charges.

I thought that it eventually adds up as a total tax and that they are just breaking it down for me but I did the math and the percentages of the taxes for the monthly service and both of each lines are disproportionate. I thought for a second that the reason behind the difference in percentage was the fact that different taxes were added, but to my surprise I find that the taxes are the same: Federal Universal Service Fund; Telecom Excise Tax; and Utility Use.

What is going on here? Am I being ripped off? Or is this correct. How can I find out if the percentages are correct? Has anyone else encountered such problem?

Thank you all so much.
