i have self storage units,
i have a add in the yellow pages and yellow book,
yellow book charges me a $3.00 monthly fee because i pay by check and not credit card.
i have never been late.
i can hardly wait for the sales person to try and renew the contract.

I get this same type of charge when I pay my State Farm Insurance. I don't understand it at all, maybe it is too much of a hassle to go to the bank to deposit a check.

Most larger companies have a check reader system. They feed the checks through and they are deposited without ever going to the bank. Or they use a service that does it for them. Either way to me getting paid is part of the overhead of running a business. I don't understand charging extra to get paid on time!

I was in the ATT store the other day. A lady came in to pay her bill and they charged her $3 extra to pay in cash. I laughed out loud.

That is BS, the contract says the amount and it must be paid in legal tender which is US cash. If she paid it she was a fool. I'd get a letter from the moron that told her that and then go to the attorney general of your state.
