Total Call The Latest Ordered To Pay Up and Be Clean!

Total Call International a leading phone card provider located in California is the latest company ordered to pay penalties and clean up their cards.

In a civil case brought by the State of California, Total Call was ordered to pay $300,000 in penalties and mandated to be monitored for the next 4 years to ensure that they no longer charge "hidden and deceptive fees" which are against the State's false advertising and unfair competition laws. In order to remain in compliance Total Call must clearly disclose all charges on it's advertising materials and the cards themselves.

In response Total Call has already started removing some fees from it's products and has begun to revise all of it's marketing materials to get into compliance.
