Usually it is upper management at the phone co you have that creates shadow companies to bilk huge amounts of money. They got caught in the 80's, ( back when we were still citizens), now we have zero consumer protection. I fact it is usually politicians who are in on these scams

now I expect someone to jump in and say "prove it"....LOL ! thats exactly how they get away with it, you can't prove anything, and even if you could there is nothing you can do but just pay up and change phone companies constantly

Yeah....at least one of them had a misleading name. I think it was “FTC.”

Sure there is. Call the phone company and tell them you are canceling your plan, immediately.

There it is. I can’t prove anything. It’s just my word.

Prove what?   You have described nothing to prove or disprove.   Try to describe the process that you think high up phone company executives and politicians do or did to bilk huge amounts of money.

Back in the eighties AT&T was by far the dominate phone company even after the Modified Final Judgement and Court Ordered Divestiture.   What did AT&T or Bell System executives get caught doing?
