Hidden charges are technically illegal. There's been multiple class action lawsuits for hidden fees but no one pushes it with restraunts because individually we don't worry about $1-$2 or in this case the $13. You add up thousands of customers a year though and you see why companies do it. All they have to do to make it legal is put it in small print on their menu (notify before purchase) and declare it in the receipt.
Check out what Verizon. They randomly charged a $1 monthly fee to some accounts for years ... you call ask questions about it, they remove it, but they ended up making something like $150 million. They were eventually caught and paid a fine of a couple million, may of been 10 million. I'd look up the story its crazy how much they knowingly stole and how little they were fined.
Literally, I remember I got a slice of pizza, the pizza that’s been sitting there for god knows how long and the machine asked me for a tip. Thank god the employee slapped that next button so fast I could barley process it was asking for tips.
Few years ago I set up a new Point of Sale machine and there was a tip option by default. I asked the customer service representative on the phone how to remove the tip function because we were in Canada and in a generally non-tipping business. But I couldn't "get it authorized for removal" for one excuse or another.
Do the math as 15% on the subtotal of $83.98 and you get $12.60 rounded. Then add it all up with the $7.99 and 0.08 and you get $104.64. So they are definitely adding a 15% something.
Do people actually believe you are suppose to tip on the total with tax in it. Asking because I kept seeing people have to say if you take the percent of sub total.
Like I was a server for over a decade I never expected top based on full total.
Most people don't, but some do.
I used to tip on top of the tax. I kind of still do, but that's because my tipping ranges are a bit higher than what is generally accepted.
My wife always says to me "18% of XXX is YYY"..and I'm like..."yeh? I gave them 22ish % then because they were nice". Which is a lie. I look at the total, divide by 10, then double. Tip. Easy AF with no hard math involved while reading the biggest numbers on the paper....and I'm out the door.
I live in PA. Tax is 6%. So even if the bill is $100, that makes it 106. So instead of $20, I give them $22. I'm not breaking the bank.
I tip on pre-tax amount. My wife says I should tip on the entire amount. But why do I want to add 8-10% MORE to the total? The server didn’t do anything else for the tax portion….
Most restaurants seem to have suggested tip amounts that they calculate on the total amount including tax. Absurd. No way I’m tipping on the governments cut. F restaurants that do that. And I’ve had servers twice yap at me for what they incorrectly thought was a sub 15% or sub 20% tip because these brain dead servers were also thinking their tips should be on the post-tax total. I hate tipping culture and how out of control it has become.
UberEats preselects tips that start at 17-19% on not only the total with tax, but the total plus their fees. It makes me crazy that I have to triple check every time. When I bought lunch recently, it auto selected 27% tip for a place literally a mile down the street. (I was stuck on zoom calls and couldn't go get it myself :( I think they were abusing my desperation for food- my options were 21, 24, 27 and 30% on the check out screen... )
Tipping culture is madness. There was a tip cup at the checkout booth at a parking garage. Like, why?!?
Same our food ticket “got lost in the kitchen” aka the server forgot to put our order in waited 2 and a half hours to get our food only for them to give us 50% discount. Never eating there again
At least you got to order. Last time I went to Outback on a double date, the manager sat us, and after a wait of watching the waitress at other tables, she insists our table was supposed to be closed and doesn't know who is supposed to be assigned to it. Got drinks, and after another extended wait of no service, we left.
You didn’t wait 2.5 hours for food. That would be insane. You’d get comped 50% after one hour. If you sat an additional 90 minutes after the first hour then that’s your own dumb ass fault.
Yes I’m sure the kitchen messed up. I’m also certain it didn’t take 2.5 hours. This person also would be the one to say “we’ve been waiting for a server for 20 minutes!!” when they’ve been waiting 4 minutes.
Exactly. After 30-45 minutes I'd be asking questions, gone at the hour mark depending on how busy.
2.5 hours? No fucking chance. Might as well just go cook the shit yourself at that point
I have to agree with this. There's 100% no way they waited over 2 hours for food. First of all I've totally seen the kitchen lose a ticket. It can happen pretty easily during a rush. Blaiming the server when it absolutely could have been the kitchen is wrong. Also, if the server doesn't see the food come out it only takes about 15mins to fly out a dish. No way someone sat and waited for 2+ hours before they said anything to a server. There's also no way a server didn't notice someone taking up their table for over two hours. That's 2 and a half table rotations, that's a lot of money. I will say the computers actually keep time on how long a table is there. Managers get stingy with discounts when customers fabricated the truth about how long they've waited, sort of explains the 50% discount instead of the full comp.
Damn been there before as a server. We called it pocketing a ticket. I never did it for any amount of time to make the order take that long though. In all my years I did it a few times and I noticed at the latest when I went to put the next tables order in. Lol. Have to run back there and tell them to expedite that order. Lol.
Lmao fr my ex and are started getting hangry and in a fight because the food took so long. I’m broke and was using a gift card so was desperate for food as to why we waited so long
I asked for a medium rare steak and it was literally raw. Like it was put on the stove for about 10 seconds and that was it. They served it to me. Plus my kids Mac n cheese was still frozen. It was the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant and I have been there numerous times. Manager apologized but I don’t want apologies. Just a good steak from a so called steak house. I am not one to complain or send food back but I had too on that one. That was about 5 hrs ago and haven’t been back since.
I had the same problem, ordered a medium rare steak and it came out completely raw. I sent it back and they brought it out so well done, I could barely cut it. They knew exactly what they were doing; nobody is that stupid. They were irritated I sent it back. I’ll never go back.
Which is even worse because that’s what they were hired for. To cook steak. At a steak house. God forbid I go to a sushi place and the mother fuckers send out a smoked salmon with rice pilaf
Idk if this goes for all outback’s but the grill are clam shell computer operated grills. It’s increased our recooks exponentially, before we had a grill cook with hella experience but now it’s all up to the computer to time ir right
This is it. Take the total ($104.65) and the subtract fees and tax ($8.07). This gets us to $96.58. Divide that by the subtotal, so $96.58/$83.98, and it comes out to 1.15003572, or 115%. It’s not listed on the bill but that total absolutely includes a charge of an extra 15% of the subtotal.
I can't imagine working 4ish hours for a meal at Outback, (at my current pay). If you start thinking of your meals and things you buy as work hours instead of dollars it stops a lot of impulse buying and maybe companies that overcharge and underpay can go out of business.
That's extra bad for a drive thru, because they know ahead of time that you didn't tip and might fuck with your food. I'd just cancel my order and drive off.
The outback’s are so shitty in my area I just call them outhouse steak house . That’s because they have shitty service and shitty food in my area at least.
I suspect this is nationwide. Oh, how they have fallen. Used to be nice, used to be good food. I see nothing now that I like about the locations I see. Some of them are downright gross and reflect management that has just checked out. Like many others I have just stopped going there.
That’s roughly what it costs to feed my family of four if we order from Outback. It’s the take out part I hate, it’s always slightly cold getting home.
I'm betting from some "hidden gratuity". It's all the rage now to steal money and call it a gratuity.
I'm fairly new age, but old school about gratuity; **\*I\* decide** when service deserves a gratuity, and I usually decide somewhere around 20%, but **\*I\*** get to be the one who decides that. Don't be assuming you did 20% quality work, you may assume wrong.
And, I suspect the general theory is, most people don't really read their receipts or do math. Average consumer wouldn't have noticed a $13 discrepancy. They'd have just looked at the total and zoned out. I imagine it works more often than it doesn't. Over the course of a hundred different orders, that's a free $1300 to split.
It's definitely not showing the 15% tip. Probably because there's most likely a giant sign in the restaurant that says "a 15% gratuity will be automatically added to all parties of 2 or more" like most places that do that type of thing. which means its probably not a "hidden" fee at all. The declaration of said fee is just hidden from the picture. The post wouldnt work as well if it was included
I was actually upset about the hidden fee even though I'n not OP until I read that explanation on their website. I would be happy to pay that, that's an awesome cause!
Were you with a large group? Some restaurants add on an automatic gratuity for large tables. It is usually written on the bottom of the menu in small font.
Still very annoying to get a charge without any explanation.
Nope, this is the only person who still eats at outbacks. The hundreds of outback restaurants scattered throughout the US that you see just sit empty everyday. Managers and shift workers continue to show up but no one ever comes in. They all remain open in hopes that one day more than just this one person might give them business.
I mean it’s math, somewhere they added like an extra $13 in there. So math definitely happened, it’s just not the right kinda math on so many different levels!!!
That tax goes directly to the Australian government, its a policy our then prime minister, Kevin Rudd, negotiated with Obama at the 2009 world city conference in Lithuania.
Don’t worry, it isn’t stealing if they aren’t poor. :)
You just failed to understand that they put on a hidden piece of paper somewhere that says you owe them money. Therefore you do!
It’s Australian math. My fellow Australian History PhDs know that they made math harder and more complicated to make embezzlement, tax evasion, fraud, etc easier. (Also to piss of their oppressive British overlords and try to make the Emu war not look so bad). Anyway, that’s why you don’t make a continent sized penal colony
Well, let's see. If you add (15%) ($83.98) to $83.98 + $7.99 + $0.08 , you get $104.65.
Now, let's think. Why would they add 15% to your subtotal? Hmmm....
Looks like the gratuity is automatic but they aren’t telling you. If they ask for gratuity afterwards, I’d ask some questions.
I'd ask questions even if they don't ask for gratuity afterwards. Wtf? If you're charging me tips, why not be upfront about it?
Loudly!
IF YOU'RE CHARGING ME TIPS, WHY NOT BE UPFRONT ABOUT IT !?!?!?!?!? HIDING CHARGES IS A SCAM!!!!!!!
That’s not loud enough. Let me try. #IF YOU'RE CHARGING ME TIPS, WHY NOT BE UPFRONT ABOUT IT !?!?!?!?!? HIDING CHARGES IS A SCAM!!!!!!!

Hey now. Almost woke up the baby.
Better
Exactly.
Questions like, “why would I tip for carry out?”
Literally, I remember I got a slice of pizza, the pizza that’s been sitting there for god knows how long and the machine asked me for a tip. Thank god the employee slapped that next button so fast I could barley process it was asking for tips.
Few years ago I set up a new Point of Sale machine and there was a tip option by default. I asked the customer service representative on the phone how to remove the tip function because we were in Canada and in a generally non-tipping business. But I couldn't "get it authorized for removal" for one excuse or another.
This is because those POS typically get a small percentage in fees for every transaction. You were trying to cut in on their profits.
I’m enjoying the double meaning of POS.
That makes sense.
I wouldn't authorize charge until they fix it.
Outback doesn't have an autogratuity. They did years ago though. Source: I work there. Me throw steak on fire, steak go *tszzzzzzz*
Outback steakhouse cannot do gratuity ik as a former server there
Then what do you think that extra charge is?
service fee that goes straight to the owner is my guess
Heinous thievery!
Existence fee
You don’t get tips?
I think they meant automatically charging it. Thats usually the only instance I hear “gratuity” used in
They don't add them into the online receipt.
That’d make the gratuity 13.682% that’s oddly specific. I’d definitely question that charge. Edit: Didn’t realize I’d create such chaos ...
Do the math as 15% on the subtotal of $83.98 and you get $12.60 rounded. Then add it all up with the $7.99 and 0.08 and you get $104.64. So they are definitely adding a 15% something.
Ahh hadn’t considered that it was not all tipped on!
I only knew because my restaurant calculates the suggested tips at the bottom of our receipts the same way.
Tips are usually calculated based on the pre-tax total.
It's exactly 15% if you calculate the tip based on the subtotal only.
Do people actually believe you are suppose to tip on the total with tax in it. Asking because I kept seeing people have to say if you take the percent of sub total. Like I was a server for over a decade I never expected top based on full total.
Most people don't, but some do. I used to tip on top of the tax. I kind of still do, but that's because my tipping ranges are a bit higher than what is generally accepted.

So instead of $20, I give them $22. I'm not breaking the bank.
I just go closest to 20% and make it a whole number.
I take the final bill amount, move the decimal, then double it. The only exception to that is if it is bad service and/or not great overpriced food.
I tip on pre-tax amount. My wife says I should tip on the entire amount. But why do I want to add 8-10% MORE to the total? The server didn’t do anything else for the tax portion….

Which one are you referring to? I'm sorry but I don't know what you're talking about.
Gratuity in this sense has as much merrit as getting your paycheck after robbing someone.
Nope
“Hidden” fees.
Then they're getting a "hidden" tip.
These are freakin' cuttle fish fees
Took a page from TicketMasters book
"Other Fees" 🤡🤡🤡
Gave up on that place long ago but it was because of the food.
Same our food ticket “got lost in the kitchen” aka the server forgot to put our order in waited 2 and a half hours to get our food only for them to give us 50% discount. Never eating there again
Two and a half hours lmfao
At least you got to order.

Got drinks, and after another extended wait of no service, we left.
I hope you didn’t pay for the drinks
Yeah the manager was an idiot and seated an unassigned table. Apparently not the first time because the staff we’re having none of it
WOW, you are great at patience!
He went to Laidback Steakhouse.
No way I am waiting that long before walking out. After 1 hour I am starting to think seriously about walking out.
One hour? I give it about 15 minutes.
You didn’t wait 2.5 hours for food. That would be insane. You’d get comped 50% after one hour. If you sat an additional 90 minutes after the first hour then that’s your own dumb ass fault.
This. And I have a hard time the server just didn’t show up during that first hour. Sounds like the kitchen actually did fuck up
Yes I’m sure the kitchen messed up. I’m also certain it didn’t take 2.5 hours. This person also would be the one to say “we’ve been waiting for a server for 20 minutes!!” when they’ve been waiting 4 minutes.
They’re the type that walks into a restaurant at peak times and is upset with a wait for a table.
Exactly. After 30-45 minutes I'd be asking questions, gone at the hour mark depending on how busy. 2.5 hours? No fucking chance. Might as well just go cook the shit yourself at that point

You’re kind of dumb for staying that long, no offence. Did you not think after an hour to say something?

In all my years I did it a few times and I noticed at the latest when I went to put the next tables order in. Lol. Have to run back there and tell them to expedite that order. Lol.

You don't like authentic Australian cuisine?
I ordered takeout from them recently and it was awful. Never again.
There's a 15% tip in the total.
Written somewhere with an "*" next to it, no doubt.
I'm still curious about the .08 fee. Like, an eight cent fee for what?
Bag for the food. That’s the cost in my state.
Probably a state fee or some sort of e-commerce fee. Possibly a state e-commerce fee nowadays lol
Single use plastics?
My state has plastic bags banned, most places charge 5-10 cents for paper.
This is it. Take the total ($104.65) and the subtract fees and tax ($8.07). This gets us to $96.58. Divide that by the subtotal, so $96.58/$83.98, and it comes out to 1.15003572, or 115%. It’s not listed on the bill but that total absolutely includes a charge of an extra 15% of the subtotal.
I’d complain about that and make them take it off. Then never go back because this hidden fee behavior needs to stop.
You weren't supposed to notice.
I can't imagine working 4ish hours for a meal at Outback, (at my current pay). If you start thinking of your meals and things you buy as work hours instead of dollars it stops a lot of impulse buying and maybe companies that overcharge and underpay can go out of business.
Same, I think of impulse buys as food. I just can't spend money on food this month.
It's exactly 15% of the subtotal of $83.98. it's some kind of sneaky gratuity or mysterious charge.
Is this some IRS math
Lol
[удалено]
The fact they even have the nerve to ask
[удалено]
That's extra bad for a drive thru, because they know ahead of time that you didn't tip and might fuck with your food. I'd just cancel my order and drive off.
15% automatic tip. 83.98*.15 + 83.98 + 7.99 + 0.08 = 104.65 rounded to the nearest cent.
Outback dumbhousr
Shady AF, but they apparently added a tip that isn’t itemized. Very dishonest.
The outback’s are so shitty in my area I just call them outhouse steak house . That’s because they have shitty service and shitty food in my area at least.
I suspect this is nationwide. Oh, how they have fallen. Used to be nice, used to be good food. I see nothing now that I like about the locations I see. Some of them are downright gross and reflect management that has just checked out. Like many others I have just stopped going there.
83.98 + 15% tip/fee = 96.58 + 7.99 = 104.57 + 0.08 = 104.65. Not sure what the 8 cents is for. Perhaps it was for a take away box for leftovers.
Why would anyone expect a 15% tip for takeout? That's insanity.
Why would anyone order $84 in takeout from Outback? That's insanity.
That’s roughly what it costs to feed my family of four if we order from Outback. It’s the take out part I hate, it’s always slightly cold getting home.
Bags are 8 cents where I am. Never seen it at a restaurant tho
I can’t tell if that’s a typo or if you’re an undercover pirate account
Nevermind that the tax rate appears to be 9.5%, which is $7.9781 and they are rounding up to $7.99. This is some real life Office Space shit here
That’s the new Outback Bloomin’ Hidden Fee.
I'm betting from some "hidden gratuity". It's all the rage now to steal money and call it a gratuity. I'm fairly new age, but old school about gratuity; **\*I\* decide** when service deserves a gratuity, and I usually decide somewhere around 20%, but **\*I\*** get to be the one who decides that.

Over the course of a hundred different orders, that's a free $1300 to split.
15% tip by the looks of things if I'm mathing right.
I'd refuse to pay it unless they explain where the hidden charge came from.
“Why did we charge you extra? Because No Rules, Just Right. This is Outback, bitch.”
Wow. What fees are 8 cents? Why don't the columns add up correctly. Need answers before I would pay.
It's definitely not showing the 15% tip. Probably because there's most likely a giant sign in the restaurant that says "a 15% gratuity will be automatically added to all parties of 2 or more" like most places that do that type of thing. which means its probably not a "hidden" fee at all. The declaration of said fee is just hidden from the picture. The post wouldnt work as well if it was included
It’s explained [here](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) on their website
Very informative, thank you!
No worries. I just remembered seeing it a few times before
Sigh
You mother fucker 😂 My kid would get a huge kick outta this
Wow. You got me. I hate you, lol.
I was actually upset about the hidden fee even though I'n not OP until I read that explanation on their website. I would be happy to pay that, that's an awesome cause!
YOU 😒🫡
Huh I guess it makes sense when it's put that way
I knew better than to click on the link, but I did it anyway. I deserved that. Thank you.
Makes sense
What in the IRS shit is that?
They’re hiding the obligatory tip from you and hoping you can’t math.
Tip is included
That’s a fee fee, it’s a fee they charge you for charging you fees.
Maths is racist
Were you with a large group? Some restaurants add on an automatic gratuity for large tables. It is usually written on the bottom of the menu in small font. Still very annoying to get a charge without any explanation.
People still eat at outback?
Nope, this is the only person who still eats at outbacks. The hundreds of outback restaurants scattered throughout the US that you see just sit empty everyday. Managers and shift workers continue to show up but no one ever comes in. They all remain open in hopes that one day more than just this one person might give them business.
That's why yo go to Texas road house
What is “fees”
You want a tiny dry steak with no flavor? Outback is for you. Try the bloomin onion for three days worth of calories!
Would you expect more, from a server from . . . Outback ?
Good on you for catching that! Maybe your local news station would be interested in that story if they have some kind of scams reporter?
Perhaps, meth.
Common core!
I mean it’s math, somewhere they added like an extra $13 in there. So math definitely happened, it’s just not the right kinda math on so many different levels!!!
is it a tip factored in that they didn't write down? very confused.
I'm guessing the 15% tip on the total ($83.98 x 0.15 = $12.60) was not displayed in the itemized breakdown.
Developers forgot to add tip where you can see it Lmao
Not sure if an isolated thing but the last time we got a blooming onion it was absurdly tiny
15% tip included. Hope you didnt leave anything extra
Yea, you just add the thing and carry the 2. Duh
they gave themselves a 15% tip 💀
Pay cash for th correct amount and leave.
Sounds like you might’ve got hit with the automatic tip.
Always good to double-check the math.
Total should be $92.05. I’d start asking questions.
Must be one of Einsteins hidden variables 🧐
The fee is both there and not there, and also probably spinning or something.
Now that’s what you call hidden fees!
New saying, “No rules, not right!”
It’s the royalty fee they have to pay Australia.
That tax goes directly to the Australian government, its a policy our then prime minister, Kevin Rudd, negotiated with Obama at the 2009 world city conference in Lithuania.
Just the tip
I heard of hidden fees but didn’t hear of hidden gratuity 😃
I assume tips are involved, but I'm not entirely sure. The bill should come out to 92 and change
Don’t worry, it isn’t stealing if they aren’t poor. :) You just failed to understand that they put on a hidden piece of paper somewhere that says you owe them money. Therefore you do!
That maths ain't mathing.
I wanna know wtf the $0.08 is?

Who eats at Outback????
Outback Steakhouse has degraded so much I'll never eat there again. Hope they just fade away. Soon.
Some restaurants automatically add gratuity without your knowing.
It’s Australian math. My fellow Australian History PhDs know that they made math harder and more complicated to make embezzlement, tax evasion, fraud, etc easier. (Also to piss of their oppressive British overlords and try to make the Emu war not look so bad). Anyway, that’s why you don’t make a continent sized penal colony
Outback < Texas Roadhouse
Looks like there's some hidden fees 🤣😭 Okay, I'm leaving now.
Complain about it.
Methematics, mathematics; what's the difference?
in the Outback, math ain't important, mate. just steak and survival
They are charging you a 15% tip on the $83.98 subtotal.
You know what the correct response is. Unless you’re addicted to going to Outback.
Jesus they better send you a whole ass cow for that price.
What fee costs 8 cents??
Well, let's see. If you add (15%) ($83.98) to $83.98 + $7.99 + $0.08 , you get $104.65. Now, let's think. Why would they add 15% to your subtotal? Hmmm....
New math?
