Information And Details About Verizon's New Convenience Fee
Starting 01/15/12 a new $2 payment convenience fee will be instituted for customers who make single bill payments online or by telephone. This fee will help allow us to continue to support these single bill payment options. It is designed to address costs incurred by us for only those customers who choose to make single bill payments via alternate payment channels (online, mobile or telephone). It is waived for those who pay by electronic check or enroll in AutoPay. Verizon encourages customers to use those or other payment options that incur no fees at all. The telephone and online single payment fee, which takes effect January 15, 2012 will be disclosed up-front and throughout the transaction. There are numerous payment options available to VZW customers where the fee is waived or where no fee applies.
