      $30 would cover the $27 of taxes and (mostly) fees for my phone and internet (business) bundle.

      I have a “Deregulated Administration Fee” of $8.95.

      Edit: It is 100/40 bonded VDSL2 for those curious. There is an upgrade available to 200/40 though. Good speeds for middle of nowhere, but that means only one wired provider.
