          Nothing about your original comment reads as anything but defending that practice. Everything you said is factual, and it all sounds like defense. I appreciate that you laid out all the information that you did, but it reads like you’re saying “just playing devil’s advocate” when you’re just trying to spin a narrative that this is ok when that isn’t reality.

          I’m not buying it. Your explanation doesn’t defend the $11.99 “product” and you can do an Auth on a credit card and get that same info without doing a Settle which actually takes money from the person. At worst, you could say its a refundable deposit, but its not that either. This is simply a cash grab charging for something that was included for free before.
