Q:
|
Why am I being asked for a credit card?
|
| A:
|
Not all customers are eligible to pay for their digital media charges via their wireless phone bill. The most common reason you are required to pay by credit card is that a third party (for example, your employer) is responsible for paying your core voice and data services. Another reason might be past delinquency on your account. If you think you should have the authority to buy via your invoice but do not, contact Customer Care at 800-639-6111.Back To Top >>
