Long-distance callers have some money coming - MarketWatch

Make any long distance calls in the last three years? Claim your cash in 2007!

The repeal of the Federal excise tax (initiated in 1898 to fund the Spanish-American war) means the government is handing out refunds. Niiiiice.

You’re eligible for the refund if you made a long-distance call between Feb. 28, 2003, and Aug. 1, 2006. To make it easy, the IRS is offering a standard refund between $30 and $60 (one exemption gets you $30, two get your $40, three get you $50, four or more get you $60).
