OUCH!!! Thank you for looking it up.
I'm trying to get DS to take the time to look into these types of things in advance so he knows how to plan ... but planning is not one of his strengths. Getting him to take the time to explore all of the information available on the web-site is not something he takes kindly to. Those ADHD characteristics he has are going to be his downfall.

You're welcome.
Honestly, I didn't know that detail before I got the card either. I just knew I could pay online for free and that was enough for me.
DS thinks that all businesses work the same way. He would have assumed that since he can pay Sprint by phone with no fee, he could do this also. I will put a BIG NOTE, warning him, on the fridge! 
I like the way the "letter" in the mail says telephone payments are available at a "nominal" fee. Doesn't seem too nominal to me ... but I guess it beats the alternative ... late fee and rate jacking.
