The only free pick up point at Stansted is a bus ride away. There has not been a free pick up point at the terminal since I have been going there. Now the free drop off has gone and it costs £2.00 to drop off at the terminal.

The times I have gone I've either used the Terminal drop off or the pick up point in the middle which was free for 15 minutes.

Never paid a bean to pick up there, ever.

You haven't been very often have you.
The terminal drop off has been closed, it is now in the car park and costs £2.00 and there is no 15 minute free pick up point in any car park at the terminal.

I went there about a dozen times last year, never paid a bean, and was never asked to pay a bean.

Then adjust the prices or wear the loss. Your choice.

I'm glad we don't very often get fares up to that one it's bad enough that most are upping the cost to £2 with only Heathrow and Gatwick left not charging out of the top 10 traffic wise

Indeed, but there are a number of caveats.
