Another success. I'm going to assume that this is completely fixed, so I'll "Solution" this thread.
Prepaid cards are no longer accepted as they are easy to use as a way to avoid automatic or overdue payments, avoid termination or unreturned equipment fees, etc.. you see where this is going, I hope.I see where this is going. At breakneck speed toward the dead end on Exercise In Futility Avenue. How stupid does Hughes think people are? All it takes is one phone call to ensure Hughes never collects another penny on any existing payment method.
Maybe the dumbest explanation I have ever heard far a major screwup.

What explanation? The following?
"Prepaid cards are no longer accepted as they are easy to use as a way to avoid automatic or overdue payments, avoid termination or unreturned equipment fees, etc.. you see where this is going, I hope."
If that's the explanation you are referring to as being the "dumbest", it is a valid explanation and has perfectly valid reasoning behind it. Many companies with contracts don't allow prepaid cards for payments.
As has been demonstrated, a blanket policy may not have been the way to go, but there is still a valid need for it. It's hardly "dumb".
Yes it is dumb, I can cancel any other type of card and have a new one issued in 3 days. You still have the same problem as you have with a prepaid card.

Cancelling your card doesn't cancel your account, nor the judgment that can be filed against it for non payment.
Not allowing prepaid cards has a valid reason.
What are you referring to?
