Beware tough billing via email with a link attached may be dangerous. There are hackers that pose as companies that send emails with legit looking links but leads to a fake site.
Sure legit companies also send email links to their sites but if you go to the wrong one it will be the hackers that get the money and not the legit companies.It happen to me twice.
My cable company told me they did not received payment, and now recently I got two emails from my cable company that tells me one of those emails are fake. So to avoid this problem do not click on the links in the emails, instead go to main site in your browser and type everything in yourself making sure you see the lock padlock and https the 's' meaning secured. I got everything settled now.
In short even you think they are legit companies in your emails still don't click on the links, use your browser and just search for your companies' name.If you know the your passwords you use to enter various company sites then there is really no need in this case to use email anyway.
Paying bills online is very convenient ,especially if you do not want to go out in -40 degree or 130 degree weather. I used to ride my bicycle in very hot weather in early morning to the insurance building to pay my bill. Not anymore, I can still pay the amount I owe just sitting in front of my air conditioner. :
I do not have a credit or debit card so how do I pay my bills? Simple really I use the online check sometimes called electronic bank transfers. All is required is: Your bank information, the router number and account numbers of your checking/savings account and of course your company's account number, and so far there is no convenience fee using this option, either from ( my bank anyway) or companies.
On checks the routing number is on the bottom right side of the check and your account number is just right of it. (end)
