She is right. In your example it would amount to $4 you would not recover. How many phone calls, how much time, and how much stress is worth that $4? In my case I decided none of it was.

Exactly, $4 for all those hours, and, just like the grocery stores that fail to program their scanners and collect just a penny or two from each customer, that $4 is not worth 4 or more hours of time to most of us, but that is EXACTLY what all businesses know, that meaningless amount (and it has to be a small amount or people WOULD pursue it) times a thousand, or two, or ten, begins to amount to REAL money !

I wasn't complaining (what good does that do). Only informing. And I am not giving these corporations any more of my money to hold on to than the amount they are entitled to. I do not trust these companies enough to let the bills "self correct."

No you were on point. Those who interpreted it as complaining missed the point completely.
