"Account tracking is not necessary, but a nice feature. Currently paying way too much per month for such a simple meter. Refill fees of $18.99 each transaction plus a qtrly charge of $7.99 for each refill is highway robbery. So keeping these "transaction" costs down is very important. Thank you."

"Probably 25 pieces of postage a month; mostly standard letters, a few larger envelops. We have a standard PB meter now that connects to internet when money is downloded into it or to download postage changes. This cost me $14.99 per month. And sometimes they charge to put money in it. I am very unahappy with PB and am looking for a new vendor."
