I was mad enough to contact Investor Relations.  I suggest anyone else who wants to complain to do the same.

Told them to give message to CEO and QB Product Exec that I want to have an opt-out option the 1% fee and why.  Told them to look at all the complaints about this in the "community" messaging.  Told them online support people can't solve them problem.  Escalate to executives.
