The fee is most likely to eliminate nuisance complaints and/or
set up a small amount of continuous cash flow to sustain operations.
It's trivial for a small business to pay that.  For unknown
reasons, every company seems to have a few hostile customers
who go into a rage of complaints that never ends, much like you.
A company I worked for had one customer who would plug the electric
mains into the output ports of his product and return it, every
month, month after month, for years until the repair technician
finally complained to management.  Repairs were free.  Eventually,
they gave him a new unit.  He blew it up and returned it too.
They started charging for repeated repairs after that.  That put
an end to him and a few others returning product repeatedly but
less frequently.  If you had a serious complaint, submitted for
free, they likely would've fixed it at some point as part of
their product improvement cycle.

I thought you were coding your own.  Supposedly, you did so
once already for Testra.  Repeat the process.  You'll be happy
with the result.
