????

You're saying this when they're literally stopping companies from charging hidden fees?

What a country, protecting their citizens from companies. How dare they

Why do they even NEED to step in. How do you charge someone and not tell them? How do you not see the insanity there.

And y’all are hung up on the fact the police are doing their job and missing the forest for the trees.

It shouldn’t be “hey please print out your fees” but rather so you were caught just making up shit and charging whatever. Yeah that’s illegal. So here’s a giant ass fine. Pay everyone back. And another fine.

How is that getting lost???
