Have you noticed that after the surcharge ban, businesses are finding new ways to charge customers?

Update: Thanks to everyone who weighed in. I have submitted a report to the ACCC and hope it gets looked into soon (unless they are already winding down for the Christmas holidays!). I will share an update here if I hear back.

To be clear, my intention is not to see local businesses struggle. I am more than happy to support them when their pricing practices are transparent and fair. But if consumers do not speak up, it sets a bad precedent for other businesses to introduce similar hidden fees, especially when times are already tough for everyone.
