It counter intuitive from a normal mindset, not the mindset of a gouging insurance company.

But money order should be ok but they have a fee too. permalink fedilink source parent [–] athatet@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago Didn’t this admin literally get rid of the ‘no extra fees’ regulation? permalink fedilink source parent [–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago Like that shit is enforced anymore LMAO permalink fedilink source parent [–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 6 points 6 days ago Read the image. They charge a higher premium if you don't use their auto pay. The only way I can see around it is if you make annual payments instead of monthly. Fewer payments, less fees. If we're feeling petty, though, we can accept the higher premium, and send them weekly (or even daily) check payments instead of monthly. Let them process 30 transactions per month instead of just one. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Death__BySnuSnu@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago Show up with a dump truck full of pennies. permalink fedilink source parent
