6 hrs confidence:
piggybacking charge Explanation: Acontece que a palavra "fatura" está mal empregada no original. Trata-se de uma "cobrança carona" que os incautos ou apressados poderiam pagar sem perceber. Sim, "free-riding" (não "free rider", sem hífen) seria engraçado para brasileiros e americanos mas não é de uso comum em inglês. Nessa veia, a palavra seria "hitchhiking", mas esta também não é de uso comum. O que é comum é "piggybacking" (ser carregado/a nas costas) |

peer agreement (net): +1free rider invoice Explanation: "Party that enjoys a benefit accruing from a collective effort, but contributes little or nothing to the effort." Esta fatura vai "de carona" com a fatura do cartão. É um "free rider"! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2011-09-17 03:24:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think that "free riding invoice" would also be suitable, as it is the invoice that is riding for free.
