I've never bought a tracphone from QVC, but I use another prepaid phone. Anytime I buy a card to add funds, I get charged a fee plus the tax. Maybe that is the case here? You are being charged a fee for the minutes/data?

@PickyCindy If your state imposes those taxes, you'd have to move to avoid them from any merchant who follows ther law.

@PickyCindy There was a thread about this same charge a few days back. QVC is jusdt following whatever laws OP's state requires.
Taxes vary from state to state for all sorts of our purchases. I'm a snowbird - QVC automatically changes the tax I pay even on AD shipments depending upon which state a particularly delivery is sent. Verizon does something similar. as does Zappos and probably a gazillion other companies.

The surcharge isn't because your using a CC @Grnthumb it's what your buying with your CC, a phone. Check with your State...mine collects lots of $ from phones & wants more.

It may be a recycling fee imposed by your state. Has nothing todowith your CC.

Thanks for your response but according to the state of Michigan...".surcharges apply only to credit card transactions and cannot be assessed for debit card or prepaid money card purchases". Just surprised, I looked back at all my previous electronic purchases and I wasn't charged a surchare and I used a credit card.
