Auto Pay with credit cards ends
Tmobile is ending Autopay with credit cards starting in May. This is a bad PR move l with all the data breached. Who would with a sound mind link their bank account to autopay? https://tmo.report/20...

- They are not ending autopay with credit cards. They are requiring debit card or ACH info in order to receive the $5/line AutoPay discount. If you dont mind paying $5 more per line, you can continue paying them whatever way you currently pay them.
- If the security issue bothers you, just open a second account somewhere that will give you a debit card at no charge - there are options out there, including Tmobile's own MONEY service. Personally, I just opened a free Fidelity Cash Management account, with no monthly minimums, no charges, and a free Debit card. I'll use it just for T-Mobile and keep my regular banking separate
- If none of the above makes you happy, you're free to vote with your wallet and go someplace else. Keep in mind that Verizon started this a few years ago, T-Mobile is following.. You can probably expect other companies inlcuding AT&T to start doing the same - companies are going to discontinue offering discounts for something that costs them more money, and unfortunately this trend is likely going to continue.
Bro. You literally just detailed how you spent half a day to set something up so you can continue to get the same thing you used to get for free. It's disgusting to be lied about my bill never going up. I used to love T-Mobile. This is so lame.
