Regulatory Compliance Fee (RCF)

The complexity and cost of complying with telecommunications regulations in the United States, at the federal, state and local levels, are constantly increasing.  New regulatory requirements are forcing telecommunications providers like Anavon to purchase additional software services and network equipment, and dedicate significant development resources to maintain compliance.

These incremental expenses are in addition to the high cost of compliance historically incurred by telecommunications providers. Even after giving effect to this new fee, Anavon’s regulatory compliance fees are still lower than the fees charged by other leading vendors.  Our mission remains to provide outstanding service to our customers at some of the lowest rates in the industry, and that remains the case.
