Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Lays Down USF on Prepaid Phone Card Companies

Looks like most of calling cards and VoIP companies now have to scramble to get in compliance with the new laws requiring them to collect Universal Service Fund (USF) fees from all users. VoIP users will see it in additional fees on their monthly phone bill, but calling card users will not see it as directly since most phone card providers will just build it into the rates. What the phone card customers will notice is less minute.

FCC also requires Prepaid Caling Card Service Provider to have a certification before being approved to run their business.
