Default New UB Check Fee

I guess this is kind of a PSA since I haven't seen it mentioned here and UB doesn't inform you of it when you request a check, but apparently they are now charging $8 if you cashout via check by mail, $25 if it's by courier.

I requested my cashout a little over a week ago, and received the check very quickly, so that was nice, except that it was $8 light. I double-checked their website, which explicitly says no fee for check by mail, and then e-mailed support. To their credit, they responded within hours and refunded the $8 to my account, but emphasized that this was a courtesy and that future checks would incur an $8 fee as a result of "recent industry changes and increased costs from our providers".

The fee itself isn't particularly unreasonable, but it's pretty shady that they haven't provided any notification.
