CallVantage Voip Service
Have you ever thought of any add-on charges when using a VoIP service, like Callvantage? No, you haven’t? Don’t worry, you were right…
Traditional phone service normally includes costs that apply to every single line you lease. Just like any other service, traditional telephony lines and services are taxed. Depending on where you are located, you could have one or more taxes in addition to all the other monthly charges. Taxes are based on the total cost of your line access and other services. For instance, for each line’s total service cost, you can add the following taxes to the bill:
- Federal tax (about 4 percent)
- State tax (varies by state but the average range is 5 to 7 percent)
- 911 emergency surcharge fund (flat rate of $1 per line)
Taxes obviously affect your bottom line. VoIP, however, does not come with any taxes or surcharges. VoIP is totally unregulated and operates over your existing computer network. Therefore, taxes do not apply to your monthly bill.
