As consumers, we think cell phone companies have managed to set policies and practices that afford little or no rights to cell phone users. We believed it is time for a change due to the fact that these policies and practices are serious grievances from the point of view of the consumer.

Furthermore, these policies and practices place unfair financial strains on the consumer, forcing the consumer into a corner and finally monopolizes and/or takes away the consumer ability to change what they do not support or agree with. The cell phone companies need to be overhauled.

We believed that it is outrageous, abusive and unethical for the cell phone companies to charge ALL the high fees that they do. It is also unfair that they can determine for us when and how cell phone users may terminate their contracts. Therefore we the undersigned believe that many cell phone company policies and practices should be abolish or regulated:

The following should definitely be abolished:
$150-$200 Early Termination Fees
$15-$35 Reconnection fees (it takes few seconds to disconnect, it should not cause this much to reconnect)

The following should definitely be regulated:
The Service Plan
Regulate per/min charges(Third world countries pay less to call the U.S but
we can not call them with the same type of rates/savings)

Late fees should have grace period (7-14 days) before they are imposed.

Phones portability (users should have the ability to use their phone with
any carrier, instead of buying a new one whenever they change companies, this could help the environment as well.)

ALL calls after 7PM should be free (users should not have to wait until 9PM)
ALL carriers should allow rollover minutes for unused minutes ( it should be a standardize feature.

Please help retore transparency and fairness to lives of average Americans who help these companies to survive daily.
