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.
My landlord gave me the option of paying online. For an additional fee.
“I’ll pay online without the additional fee.”
“We’re not renewing your lease.” Or better yet, “Please sign your new lease, at the additional $1200 market rate per month, or kindly vacate by the 1st.”
Hope you can get time off work and have the friends and money to relocate so you can enjoy another 12 months of Freedom™ from living on the street!
Hence why every reasonable jurisdiction should have tenancy tenure and rent control laws
Housing costs are such a racket.
If we’re talking about rackets, I got a bone to pick with the insurance industry too

Well, yeah? It costs the landlord to take online payments. Should they spread that cost to other people who choose to pay differently?
Use your bank, or hopefully your credit union, to send a check. There. Neither of you are out a single dime, no hassle for either party.
