Verizon 'convenience fee' for online bill payment
Seriously, are they kidding?? Isn't the whole point of paying online with your card to save labor costs because no human has to lift a finger?
Man, this is the best thing since BoA's $5 debit card monthly fee.
Verizon Convenience Fee: Customers To Be Charged $2 For Paying Bill Online Via Credit Card
In a move that is sure to upset some customers, Verizon has announced on its website that it will start charging a $2 convenience fee "for customers who make single bill payments online or by telephone."... On its website, Verizon is encouraging its customers to choose one of seven alternative payment options to avoid incurring the fee -- those options include cash via mail ***

"Cash via mail"?!

ya i have been unhappy with verizon for a while now, our plan is up in a few months and I think we will be going elsewhere. Not only are they pricey , their customer service dept sucks IMHO. Time to start shopping around I guess.

Yes customer service takes for ever
That fee is a dumb idea. I've been a Verizon customer for a long time though, and have been quite happy overall.
They 86ed the fee

The fee was to encourage people to set up auto-pay. They had no fee for auto-pay off your credit card.

Interestingly, it seems they really only collect info on speed overall (not in relation to limits) and hard braking. I tend to drive fast on the highway, and only use brakes at thelast minute at stop signs. I'm pretty sure my rates would go up, even though I've never had an accident. I'm not braking hard to avoid an accident, I'm braking hard because I like my brakes and tires to feel needed.
