    As long as a firm publishes their tariff, they can structure their charges as they wish.

    You have 2 choices; and one of them is to stay with the firm!!!

    Is there any real difference between a surcharge for not paying by DD and a discoiunt for paying by DD .. the net result is exactly the same. If you use a non automated payment method then it involves some form of 'labour' that has to be paid for ... I would prefer my bill to be as cheap as possible and not pay for 'extras' I do not use.
