So you have no problem just including it in the base rate then, right?

Sorry the idea that this is intended to benefit customers is garbage. Unavoidable charges should be included in the rate, full stop.

I hope folks with reservations here over the intended period will file a complaint with an FTC for deceptive practices. As for me, I'll be making sure my friends and colleagues don't spend their money at LPM.
