all bills get mailed.....im not an online bill payer
did you ever try it, steakie ?
actually you usually don't even need a computer just a touch-tone phone ! You can do it via websites but I prefer the telephone.
I never sign up for the automatic payment stuff, this way I get the bill in the mail and can review it, then decide if I want to pay it, dispute it... or ignore it. They all want you to auto-pay it, so they no longer have to send you a paper bill. I don't trust them to just deduct whatever from my checking acct ( esp. Comcast).
I'll never write a check and mail it for utilities ever again, I'm still in control by not using the automatic payment plans, still get a paper bill like always, I've done this for years. Works for Insurance and most everything. I have to log-in to a website to pay my quarterly water bill, all others can be done over the phone.
It takes like two minutes ( or less) to do it over the phone, no writing out a check and going to a mailbox and you save a stamp or 44 centavos to boot, and it cannot be lost.
You are in the stone ages if you mail monthly checks for utility bills.
I don't think I've mailed ten items this year, I receive mail....but I don't send it
same for checks, I write a monthly one to the condo ass, but I hand deliver it.
I rarely mail anything or write a check other than the condo fees one.
I do receive mail though, just never send any.
