This went on for three years; They added us to the route to be serviced but not the billing. When we figured it out we brought it to their attention and it turns out it was a huge company.... The general manager was a complete and utter dick - I was pissed. They would have cut my grass until the end of time if I didn't tell them they weren't billing me. They stopped service the following week, and the more we emailed each other the more hostile he got. I dragged it out as long as possible just to fuck with him because I can be a dick too.

Sucks when you do the right thing and the world does not give you back the goodness you deserve.

I don't think there is a huge difference between a big company and a small one, in this scenario, other than that sometimes a small one will appreciate your honesty more, while a lone employee at a big one might just be peeved that he had to do paperwork or you showed up his mistake.
