Why are we being penalized suddenly for paying with a credit card?

I have been with T-Mobile and have used my credit card with autopay for 5 years. Now all of the sudden I am being charged a $5 fee every month even though I'm enrolled in autopay just because I prefer to use a credit card!? This is ridiculous. I don't use my debit card for anything and I'm not going to just because T-Mobile wants me to for whatever stupid reason. Honestly, this pisses me off so much that this the first time in years that I'm seriously considering switching to another carrier.

    lol I don’t need another bank account ðŸ˜‚ that would be crazy to sign up for that just to save $5/month lmao.

  • They were supposed to send out notices on the 20th but I haven't received one yet.

    You can open a Tmobile Money account and pay with that.

    I have been on autopay (using my credit card) for ages, which gives a $5 discount. I was just informed today -- and only because I called T-Mobile, I might add; I never got a notice about this -- that in order to qualify for the discount moving forward I have to use a debit card or connect my bank account.

     

    It was bizarre, because the rep on the phone kept assuring me over and over that my information was EXTREMELY safe with T-Mobile. I told her I don't care, I want to use my credit card like I always have. It just irritates me that I'm suddenly being penalized for this out of the blue.

  • youre paying a $5 fee or you are no longer getting $5 off for using the card and are now paying $5 more per month?
