Why should we expect the service to be free?

When I buy stuff on my credit card they never say "oh, I have to add on 4% into the charges now" - the item is costed to reflect those charges in the price already.

This is the thing that stinks - it's like the "budget" airlines that offer flights for 2p, but then add surcharges, charges, credit-card charges, luggage check-in charges and then still turn up late.
