She couldn't figure out why her bill was so much higher than it had been in previous months. Her calling plan with MCI, a division of WorldCom, hadn't changed, and neither had her calling pattern. But then she found the culprit: a $52.20 international mobile surcharge tucked in the taxes and surcharges section of her bill.http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/287/business/Callers_to_wireless_phones_abroad_discover_hefty_surcharges_attached+.shtml
