Our annual service contract (read:extortion) came today. They're cutting back on services, but not on cost. So now it's $175/yr, which only includes an inspection. Anything beyond that and you pay the normal fee. No free pump or break on labor. So we're wondering WTF the $175 is for? It can't take more than a few minutes to inspect the system, and I have yet to see them come out here even though I've been home the better part of three years. Hard to miss a septic pumping truck in your driveway. Time to wing it and go without a service contract.
