Reachout "Obamaphone" update.
AUTHOR: Melvin - ()
SUBMITTED: Thursday, April 18, 2013
Reachout Mobile is really just a front for Nexus Communications, Inc., of Columbus, Ohio. They will not provide a street address for you, but I discovered that if anybody has an issue with this company you can find their real business address and phone numbers by going to the website of the Ohio Public Utilities Commission. The Commission has filed some kind of complaint or lawsuit against Nexus. I have no idea what the basis of that lawsuit is, so I won't characterize it in any way.
These Lifeline cell-phones have recently gotten some bad press and have been called "Obamaphones." That's extremely inaccurate. The Lifeline program was first put in place by President Reagan about 1985, for land lines. It was changed to include cell-phones by George W. Bush in 2004. So they're really Reagan/Bush phones. The money for this program doesn't come from taxes. It comes from a special fund that is supported by a tiny fee that we all pay on our regular phone bills. Something I'm mad about, and everybody else should be as well, is that companies like Reachout can offer "free" cell phones to seniors and poor people and make a profit on the $9.95 per month they get from the Lifeline program. That tells you what you should actually be paying for cell-phone service.
