Yes, CenturyLink direct bills to my credit card. I view this as a convenience plus we get points. When I come up to the end of the contract period, I just call them up and negotiate the price back down.

Also our connection is fiber optic, we have no modem on the computer and we've had great service with CL, only one outage in 6 years and that was for a lightning strike and they came and replaced the backup battery the same day and all was fine. I just prefer to leave CL alone since it is working fine and I don't mine paying $60 a month plus tax.
I did call them a year ago and they now have 40 mpbs in my area, and it's only $35 a month. Two problems, you had to give them your credit card for billing and they said year 2 it would go up to $78 a month. I said my 10 mpbs is just fine and don't touch my service.
