fee increase
Higher cost now
A fee increase is a rise in the amount charged for a service or membership.
The phrase appears often in contexts where people have little choice but to pay: The university announced a tuition fee increase of 4 percent.
Fee increases tend to generate complaint, which is why institutions often announce them with apologetic language or justifications about rising costs.
