US Cellular customers in Rock Island, Moline, East Moline and some other municipalities may see a partial refund if the cell phone company wins a class-action suit against Illinois communities. The lawsuit was filed in July against all the state's municipalities that charged a municipal Telecommunications Infrastructure Maintenance Fee to cell phone users between 1998 and 2001. The cities of Chicago and Rockford already settled their claims from the cell phone companies.
