    Correct! It used to be 70 cents. It hasn't been 50 cents for a long time.

    To add to that, with the price change, they also delayed delivery time by 1-2 days with the option of paying 50c extra for 2 days faster delivery.

    So effectively you are paying more for a slower service or double for the same service as before.

    This one irks me a bit seeing they have been entering everything in the software all year, so is just a simple print out, sure it may suck some time, but 5-10 bucks would be about the max if posted, I bet a lot of systems probably can send a direct e-mail.

    We all should do this, do work/job then add and extra 35 bucks for writing an invoice.

    Seems they only do online now, I probably have this and the other competitors somewhere, I paid for lic about 20-30 years ago,


    I am going to see if I can bother with Gnucash, which is like old MS money, or just enter it all in a spreadsheet, can get CSV from bank these days.

    The end of year statement is pretty useless unless your PM is paying all the outgoings, otherwise people will still be doing a spreadsheet or other.

    All ears for other options, hate re doing things, which is what often happens :)
