1. I've been using it for a few years now and I LOVE it. No more worrying about

buying stamps (and having them nearby when I pay, which is usually on my lunch hour at work). No more wondering if Chicago mail (rated the worst in the country) is going to get the bill there in 2 days or 2 weeks. No more having to page through my handscrawled check register to find proof of payment when Chicago mail loses a check altogether. No more late bills because I didn't have the money in my account to pay it as soon as it arrived (my husband only gets paid once a month), then I forgot to pay it once the money was in the account. I simply set it up to go out on whatever day I choose and I'm done.

It's made bill-paying so much less stressful and painful. It's one of the best uses of the internets IMHO.

8. The savings in late payments alone is marvelous.

2. Thanks for reminding me.

Normally I do all my bills online on the 11th of the month (it's on my Outlook calendar), but I thought I'd go ahead and do them now. I especially love how I can set the payment date for some to be after my next paycheck but still before the bill is actually due.

3. Couldn't get by without it

I actually couldn't. I have no concept of how bills were paid before. :D

:hi:

4. I've been doing it for a good many years. I love it.

5. It surely does. I don't know how I managed without it.

Actually, I didn't manage very well without it.

6. It's so convenient.

I've used it for a few years and have never had a problem.

I've probably saved quite a bit of money in stamps, too. $0.41 per bill adds up over time.

7. I don't understand the advantage to the bank being free

The money sits in the checking account less time with electronic transfer. Is it simply a service to match the competition? Will the banks eventually 'coincidentally" begin charging a fee once most of us are hooked? Or is it less expensive for banks to move funds electronically vs check handling with associated clearance fees?

9. Here I am being a sucker

and spending all evening writing checks and entering crap in Quicken

10. And what cave were you in?

Sorry...just sayin'

[AwakeAtLast]

I rarely write checks anymore. Lemme join ya!
