When you buy a place, it all goes through an escrow company. The escrow company charges about $1,000 (split between the seller and the buyer). They take all the money, then when it is there, make sure the property is signed over before releasing the funds to the seller. They also do various adjustments for tax, insurance, etc.
The company, however, is not satisfied with just getting $1,000 for what probably amounts to a couple hours of work. They charge you various fees, such as a $35 fee for “internet document retreival” (getting an email) or $45 for “overnight courier liaison fee” (accepting delivery of an overnight package).
So, I paid $35 for a lady to check her email with an attachment from my mortgage company. Imagine if it had been a fax.
My TV is hot.

ahh, you paid her for her to check her OWN email. the wording was ambiguous, like you paid her to allow you the privilege to check her email for her

it is still confusing…I mean why would you pay somebody to check their email, dont they just check it naturally?
