Being alive comes with a long bill.
From healthcare and housing to food, clothes, and education, even the basics are enough to empty your wallet. And that’s before you factor in life’s little pleasures.
But when a hidden, ridiculous fee gets thrown on top? That’s just adding insult to injury. These are some of the most outrageous charges people had to pay—and honestly, you’ll probably want to scream on their behalf.

#29 Restaurant Bill From Tonight
I'm not the first to post these, but 18 percent service charge, waiter said it doesn’t go to him and a lot of people don’t tip on top, it’s confusing. Fairly expensive restaurant in LA, looked on menu after and saw it in the fine print. I hate this so much, I won’t go back.

#36 Got An Eviction Letter For Being 15 Minutes Late Paying My Rent. Look At These Fees
$180 just for writing an eviction letter??? Like seriously?? You had to write it once and I bet it was years ago. You have copies just laying around!
So my $1,479 of rent after all these charges and the late fee really means my rent is $1,988. Why is it a bank can tell me I can't afford a $900 mortgage but $2000 for rent? Nah, you got this bro. 2 bed room dumpster fire with dry wall missing. This isn't not the luxury apartment that's advertised, so why charge luxury prices?
15 minutes late... kiss my a*s. You force us to pay using money order. Sorry you close your office 15 minutes before I get home. I live in Dallas, I tried to race here but whatever. My schedule doesn't revolve around you. Maybe get your s**t together and setup online payments.
Also, I haven't seen the pest dude since I've lived here.
I hate being a millennial.

#39 Ordered Some Clothes From A Reputable, Brick-And-Mortar Store In Greece. Got Hit With An Invoice Of $340 Upon Delivery To America
Turns out one of the items (€115) was made in china. Surprise. Charge is non-negotiable and irreversible. If I refuse the package I will still owe the money.

#40 Excessive Fees And Charges For A Rental Car
The original price was $390 so I was shocked when it jumped to $550 upon payment. Come to find out there’s just a buttload of excessive fees and surcharges. I mean what on earth is the police training fee for…
