extra fee for using credit card to pay bill
This company charges a $3 fee for paying online using a credit card. I had heard that this was illegal, so I contacted my credit card company (MasterCard), which told me it was illegal 99.9% of the time, leaving the .1% to a payment arrangement through a third party agent. In this age of technology and automated payment software, I would think this is not only unethical, but unfair. As for the legality, I'm not an expert in this area, but common sense tells me it should be. 
Sincerely, JD

I agree. I have the same problem. ###...
And it is actually slightly goes up every month. WTF?
Service
I live in a small condominium that had Conservice as the submetering company. For three years our meters have never worked right. They were just billing each unit with a property average. That is a legal way to do billing, but it is not what we wanted. We wanted to bill individual usage. Now they claim they are not responsible for the meter installation...
