I just noticed texas had a full $15 of tax on a $100 a month price plan.. LoL...

Anyone know of any states (excluding surcharges per line etc etc) with a higher than 15% tax on the price plan? That's craaazy.

I use 19% to give customers an accurate estimate of what their total bill will be.

I use 18% here in PA and I'm usually right around the normal monthly price give or take a few dollars or cents.

I use 15% to 20% to guess depending on the customer. If they are penny pinchers I shoot high so they don't freak out but it's usually right in between there.

California charges sales tax on the full value (National Contract Reference Price) of the equipment. It is fun to explain to clients why their phone was free but they still had to pay sales taxes on it!

Wow, so I guess that whole dig on Texas kinda backfired since other states have higher taxes, and we also have a 8.25% sales tax and no state income tax...

It really is a great state to live in...

I was not including any surchases, 911 fee's etc, I'm talking just the tax on the actual rate plan itself was a full 15%.

And I'm not bashing tx by any means (except the longhorns.. GO BUCKEYES!)

Yes well our standard of living is pretty good down here during an economic slow down so we never really notice it anyways.

And seriously, go Buckeyes? Texas will play Number 1 Oklahoma this week, #3 Missouri, #7 Texas Tech, #16 Kansas, and #17 Oklahoma state (with current rankings shown), all in conf. play.

Buckeyes lost to USC who lost to OREGON STATE!!! High School Teams schedule them for Homecoming games!

Who will the Buckeyes play before they get beat by a more dominant Penn State? and if Ohio state even brags that they are going to beat a Michigan team this year, they need to be taken out back...

at least Oklahoma and Texas will play at #1 and #5.

There are 3 teams in the top 25 for the Big Ten, there are 4 teams fro...

Hey now, that was just harsh. LoL.

That USC game made me cry. 😢

But - OSU still has a slim shot to play in the national championship..
(Btw - they'll pwn penn state. totally destroy them. rawr!)

as for TX..

They're not going to win vs OK, they'll beat TX Tech, mizz, lose to kansas, and win vs OK state.

Also - at least the buckeyes MADE it to the national championship the last 2 years, heh.

Lol well that is your opinion about the OU game, Colt is putting up similar numbers that Bradford is putting up, and Texas has the number two run defense in the Nation.

and yes Ohio State was in the National Championship Game for the same reason why no Big ten team will go again unless they are undefeated and that is because they are an overrated Confer.

They didn't just get beat By Florida and LSU, they were slaughtered.

Florida sacked Troy Smith seven times by stunting and blitzing with 4 guys on average per snap.

Texas has to play these types of teams with Okalahoma every year, so does the SEC.

face it the only reason they went was the Big Ten was overhyped and SEC teams made sure they knew the Big Ten once again kn...
