Convenience Fee
I am still looking to put more spend on my cards. A couple of my local utilities (gas, cable, etc.) allow credit card charges through a third party, but charge a “convenience fee”. I was under the impression this is a violation of the cards T & C to the merchant. Anyone heard of this before and is there any recourse? The fee ranges from $1 to $2.95 or so. Not much, but doesn’t make sense when you look at the $/mile.
