Yep, banks build revenue from late fees..utilities want to do the same. Racket.

Im not opposed to fees in general - only when a business model is shaped in a way that makes it difficult to avoid paying late fees even as a responsible customer. Some banks handle it responsibly, some banks are predatory with fees.

Xfinity is my fave for this. When the "additional" unavoidable fees make up more than 1/3 of your bill, something is very wrong imo.
