$10 surcharge for credit card payments
I just saw my first bill without autopay discount for credit card payment. My wife and I are retired and on a fixed income. This $10/month is meaningful to us. I worked in banking for nearly 40 yrs. ...
Nope, a late payment and any penalties would be all on me. Frankly, T-Mobile was my only bill on autopay and solely because of the $5 discount per line and the level of security paying by credit card provides. I'm not sure if you're advocating linking your bank account for the discount or you are willing to lose the discount by continuing with autopay by credit card. I'm on a fixed income so the $5 discount/line was important to me but not important enough to risk my bank account. In addition, I am proud to say that I have always managed to pay my bills on time with no autopays except for T-Mobile. So, I'll just add T-Mobile to my monthly hour sit-down to pay my bills. That would be my piece of mind. Again, to each his own.
