Thanks for the heads up. I just did one for them the other night. It took three calls from them for them to agree to my fee. First call "I'll have to get that approved". To which I replied "once you get the approval go ahead and give me a call and I'll be happy to accomodate". Call two they give me the this is what we pay and I have to justify to my superior the high base fee. My reply "my fee is fair and competitive. I as well as you are in this business to make a profit, so I know you understand the importance of it, and $50 base fees leave little to no profit." They said "we're trying to work with you". I replied "my base fee is $xx". They said they would get back with me. 3rd call "okay the fee is approved".
Let me know how it goes with the payment. I haven't heard anything negative on NFRES other than low base fee.
Moral of the story stick to your fees.
