There are no plausible answers for any reasonable question regarding why the .... are there access charges, etc.

The answer is it seems, because they can, and can get away with it.

From 1 July, the Fire and Emergency levy will be charged and collected by NSW Councils, whereas atm, if you have home insurance, there is a levy there, but because a lot of property owners in NSW are not insured the Govt is going to charge everyone, which will cost a lot more than what we are paying with Coles Insurance, ie, about $75 per annum for the F&E levy.

Why don't they just charge property owners that do not have insurance ?

Too easy and a money maker this way by charging every one.

Another thing, companies, telcos, insurance, retailers, etc, ... giving discounts and special deals for new customers, which is fair enough, ... but ignoring existing customers, ... no discounts or anything of good will for them.
