what's up with T-mobile removing autopay discount for credit cards?
I just literally signed up for a new plan - debit cards have fees for providers too - accessing my bank account isn’t a good approach from a security perspective (noting that T-mobile has been hacked...
That was announced months ago. It is because credit card companies charge a service charge that is based on the percentage of every transaction, which eats into T-Mobile's revenue. Removing the auto pay discount for credit cards negates that.
Not at all happy with this. Switched to Tmobile from Verizon 5 months ago understanding that if I give them a credit card number I get 10.00 off every month and my cost will never go up. That final price and credit card discount deal is what swayed me to switch providers. Now they change the game after locking me into a contract for 2 years and now tell me that in order to retain my quoted price I have to give them my unprotected bank account information or pay more which they told me would never happen!!! So now I either have to pay off the phones they told me I would get for free to switch to them OR give them direct access to my bank account info to a company that doesn't care enough to even protect protect my personal info OR give into price increase that I was promised would never happen as long as I didn't change my current plan…. BAD BUSINESS!
