Pay Your Bills Online

by Julie on October 23rd, 2007

Have you ever thought of paying your bills online? Or maybe you do this already.

People who pay bills online do so in 15 minutes a month, whereas those who write out checks take two hours, a Harris poll finds.

That’s a big time difference! What would you do with those extra hour and 45 minutes? Hmmmm, the choices are endless. I might take a bath, or read a book, or go play outside with the kids. Sounds nice doesn’t it? :)

    I do and I don’t like companies that don’t have it set up so you can. It save so much paper, time, and stamp money. This is a great tip for people who don’t.

    I’m shocked that anyone wouldn’t want to pay their bills online! So much easier - and if you stop paper statements, it’s (marginally) better for the environment too!

    Jennifer:Yeah, I think every one needs to have some sort of online billing options. It just makes sense.

    Jacqueline: I was always amazed when I would be working with a client who had mounds of paper bills and they couldn’t keep up. They were shocked how easy it is to pay bills online. I especially like the automatic draft options. Those are just great!

    You’re right, the less paper, the better it is for our environment.
