What is a Telephone Tariff?
A telephone tariff is a detailed listing of prices and fees associated with telephone service. Phone tariffs, as they are also known, are provided to members of the public, often by law, and in some cases, they must be approved by government agencies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States. For convenience, many phone companies provide their tariffs online, although a consumer must be rather dedicated to plow through the entire tariff document.
