The $2 fee is FOR using a credit card to pay your bill.
So your theory isn’t correct.

It still may not be correct, but autopay with a credit card exempted you from the fee.

My understanding is tha the $2 fee was supposed to offset the added fees Verizon must now pay to banks with the new Federal regulations for credit cards and debit cards. Banks are passing these new costs along to consumers and/or merchants who use these cards in the form of higher transaction fees, and Verizon doesn't intend to absorb the costs themselves.
They're going to get the $2/transaction in one form or another -- only now it's likely to be passed along to ALL of their customers, not just the ones who make online bill payments.
