I'll tell you what - if you accidentally type in your account number wrong more than once while paying on line they will put your account on a cash only basis even if you correct it and pay before the due date. They get really mad if you take 241 one dollar bills, 23 five dollar bills, 700 nickles, 589 dimes and 971 pennies up there to pay your bill.
For this to be effective and cause change that you may want, you need to make sure someone higher up than the "clerks" who take payments know why you are doing what you are doing in terms of protest.
otherwise, you waste time of workers who have no skin in the game, and they just think you are a jerk.
I guess it may feel good for you... but this is the same as yelling at a waitress because your food isn't cooked right, or yelling at customer support person on the phone because you are having a problem with your phone/cable/internet, etc.
Direct your anger and protest at the right people at the companies you are having a problem with. Otherwise you are just being an ass to someone who is just trying to make a living and can't control how the website works.
