Once enough signatures are collected, They will be forward to all the major cellular phone companies aswell as the CRTC to show them their customers dissatisfaction with this fee. Since wireless service has been around, consumers have been charged "System Access Fees." Whether it be Bell, Rogers, Telus, Fido, Verizon, Other. The reasoning behind it is as followed as quoted from the Bell.ca website: "System Access Fee: The fee that may be charged to you to help recover the costs associated with operating and maintaining a wireless network, including costs for ongoing maintenance, new equipment installations and technology upgrade. It is not required by nor collected for the government." Why should we be charged $7.00 - $10.00 dollars extra every month to cover the phone companies upgrading costs Is that not what we pay $30, $40, $50, $60 or more dollars for in our monthly plans If the Wireless company wants to upgrade, that\'s their own decision. Don\'t charge us the cost to upgrade you\'re Billion Dollar Companies. We would like to see the System Access Fee charges abolished from all Wireless Service Providers Sincerely, The Undersigned

Enough with these hidden costs. My bill is already way too high and they just keep tacking this on for no reason. Ridiculous.

This fee is a total scam. Been paying it for years and still don't know what I'm actually paying for.

I switched carriers twice and they all have this same dumb fee. It is never going away unless we force them to stop.

Why is this not part of the base price? sneaky way to make the plans look cheaper than they really are.

Seriously. They make billions in profit but need us to pay for their equipment? Just bake it into the plan if you have to charge it.
