The Need to Pay

A screen shot snagged from the United States Postal Service website.

When you use their site to change your address, they charge you $1. Fair enough. It’s a convenience for me and I’m happy to pay, plus $1 is a pretty reasonable amount.

I don’t care for the attempt to make it seem like they are only doing it grudgingly and that it’s not really what they want.

“We’ll need to charge you…”

C’mon, you don’t NEED to. Even if you do need to send a charge through, why could it not be $0.01, or why couldn’t you reimburse me? I don’t mind paying, just call it what it is.

Reminds me of when Netflix basically doubled their price and then told us all that it was for our best interest.
