payment
I’ve been getting texts that say T-Mobile is no longer accepting automatic credit card payments and I have to change to a debit card or checking account to pay. I see nothing about this on the websit...
This has been discussed ad nauseum here for several months now - first announced in February. T-Mobile recently changed the autopay terms which are steadily rolling out in waves.
“AutoPay is a service that allows you to set up recurring monthly payments for your bill. We will automatically withdraw your payment each month, using your preferred payment method. If you use a debit card or bank account payment, we'll give you a $5 discount per line for up to 8 lines or $40. “
You’ll find that quote by logging into your account and looking for the autopay FAQs. You can still pay with a credit card but won’t get the discount. Not a violation of the terms of service which also identifies your courses of action if you don’t agree to any changes.

I suppose someone could be looking to scam you knowing this is going on with T-Mobile (without seeing the message itself) but the change to the terms is legitimate.
