So there are a bunch of credit cards offering perks for phone plans, like cellphone protection. Unfortunately, the big carriers will void your autopay discount if you pay with anything other than your checking account or their own credit card which definitely doesn't come with cell phone protection.

    Do you just eat the cost for the peace of mind or keep paying with your checking account and signing up for their in house cellphone protection (which may or may not exceed your autopay discount) or Apple Care instead? Maybe even sign up for your carrier's credit card?

      Yeah the autopay thing is so annoying, they basically force you to choose between protection and discount. I just went with keeping the discount and got separate protection plan instead – ended up being cheaper than losing that monthly discount over time

      The carriers know exactly what they’re doing with this setup too
