Why Do People Pay to Pay Their Bills?


Admit it, paying your bills is just about as fun as pulling your teeth. It's like throwing $100 bills into a toilet and watching it go slowly down the drain. Maybe that is a little dramatic, but it is still one of the least enjoyed events of the month. Why is it that so many people continue to make it even more excruciating by spending time and money doing it?
If everyone would simply take a few minutes to set up bill payment online, they would be pain-free. Most banks offer free online bill pay as a service to their customers. They offer this free service to ad value to their customers because competition with banks is so heavy. Online bill pay is a useful service that is not used to its capacity.
Online bill pay is great, but it is not the greatest solution to paying for your monthly expenses. The best solution is auto-pay. Auto-pay is not offered by all companies, but most of them are starting to add this as a service to their members. It works by setting up a credit card, debit card, or even a bank account with the service provider so that they will automatically bill withdraw the amount owed out of your account.
Most of your monthly bills like insurance, utilities, cable, internet, and phone can be set up on auto-pay. It will take you a few minutes to contact your provider to provide them with the necessary information, but you will save huge amounts of time in the future! Your time is valuable, why waste it paying your bills?
For the bills that you cannot use auto-pay, just use the online bill pay with your bank so that you are not paying for postage, licking stamps, and spending twice as long filing paper work. Start paying for your bills online to make your life easier and save a little money at the same time!
