I don't understand the need to punish QVC by no longer shopping. 

 

QVC isn't the bank issuing the card.  You can shop at QVC multiple other ways.

 

Qurate can be "blamed" only for selecting Synchrony as its branded card issuer, but that's about it.

I got rid of my Q card years ago...too high interest rate.  I'm working on getting rid of most credit cards.  The interest rate is crazy.  I'm just going to keep just one.  That is my plan  One for emergencies.  And for occasional use but pay it off each month I'm not going to pay this high rate each month any more.

@ruthbe , yes, the horribly high interest rates infuriate me much more than them wanting to send my bills online. The last company credit card I had was at Pier 1, and only because they were offering an extra amount off of purchases that day. I came home and paid off the balance right away, which was under $100. They claimed they didn't receive my payment in time and proceeded to charge me a $25 late fee! No more company charge cards for me any longer with their awful interest rates and failure to post the payments in a timely manner. I paid it online, transferring from my checking account. I got notification that it was paid but Pier 1 told me it's not the date they receive payment, it's the date it's posted. WHAT???

I have nearly all paperless bills.  You can still print statements  out from the website.  Why waste so much paper and postage getting pages of unneccessary paperwork  that end up in recycling anyway.

I'm with the OP. I like my paper (hard copy) statements in the mail. Old school or not. I don't have a computer, and an iPad is not the way to peruse your monthly bill. I understand they want their customers to go paperless, but I don't care for the fee either. Using another card? Then there is no more EZ pays, which helps A LOT.

use a different card, there are not many benefits to the Q card

100% AGREE!  This is ridiculous. I'm done with QVC and Synchony Bank

@fritzie 309 : Looks like all charge card companies and businesses are pushing for the paperless billing. I prefer the paper statements for some because needed for income tax but everything is getting so expensive.

I don't use easy pay...I like to pay as soon as I purchase something. It really doesn't save money and besides if I can't aford it now I don't buy it! Economics 101

I don't have a Q card, I use Visa or Mastercard to shop everywhere.
