New York credit and background check actual fees

We use a third party to run the credit and application fees. They charge $29.95 for both. We do not collect the money, the third party does. One potential tenant just callled and said we are not allowed to charge $29.95, only $20.00. One, we do not collect the money or even run the report, a third party company does. Two, how is anyone supposed to run a credit and background check for $20.00 in New York State? We do not charge any fees whatsoever, the third party company charges access to the reports. Are we supposed to eat the $9.95 loss each time? This is crazy.
