Nov 2, 2012, 7:49 AM by Eric M. Zeman

AT&T, T-Mobile USA, and Verizon Wireless have indicated that they are waiving certain late fees for customers who may have been affected by Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey, Connecticut, New York, and Pennsylvania. In addition to waiving late fees and other charges, all three carriers have said that customers without power may charge their devices at company-owned retail stores. The carriers are also accepting donations to the Red Cross and other charitable organizations. Sprint has not made public its policies regarding late fees, charging, and charitable donations. All four major carriers have indicated that they are working to restore full service in the affected areas.
