I even submitted the photos with the complaint that I filled out on their website. They said that because the gate agent didn't note our complaint about having to pay that they can't issue a refund.

In the past, it has been a personal item. However, currently, overstuffed backpacks may be charged as a carry-on.

Exactly. I could take 2 suitcases yet would weight less than some people. One Scandinavian or Icelandic airline started to do that a few years ago and of course the fats were outraged.

Just got on my frontier flight at SNA to Vegas. There was no one checking bags. Probably 80% of people had personal items that looked like carryons. This is YMMV for now.
