Power company recently outsourced their payment system and now have to pay a fuckin’ fee to pay my goddamned bill. The only way to avoid that is autopay.

Further infuriating is I have to re-add my bank info to yet another third party system.

Fuck the modern world, man.

    • pay online fee: $2.50
    • Paper bill/pay by check fee: $5.00.

    I made the numbers up as I don’t recall them offhand but my energy company effectively has this policy now. :/

      They’re required to have some method of payment that doesn’t involve additional fees. Ironically, it’s usually the method that involves the most work for their employees.
