How do you pay your bills? I know alot of people pay their bills online and some through their bank account and some the old fashioned way still. I do mine through my bank account i am not brave enough or comfortable enough with the internet to start paying bills online just yet. Why do you use the method you do to pay your bills i picked mine cause i find it convient once you put you bill account number into the bank account you just go in and tell them how much u want to pay on each one you dont even have to have the bill with you?

I pay my bills through my credit card, but not all, there are still establishments that dont have the machine to receive your payment like my water bill i paid that like in an old fashioned way of paying they sent a collector to receive the payment from their customers. I have also this broadband that i paid thru bank for cash, i dont actually charge it to my account and also my credit card bills, pay for cash instead of using my account, but nowadays having new technologies everything can be possible.

I pay some online, some on the phone and some by mail. It just depends on what it is. Some places, it is quicker to just pay by phone. Some it is so easy to pay online. While some can only be paid by mail or in person. So I do a variety of when it comes to paying bills

I prefer to pay all of my bills over the phone, I find it more convenient for me, because most companies now operate an automated service where you press buttons on the phone keypad, like your account number and payment id etc, it's so quick, easy and painless, I don't like making payments on the internet either so you are not alone.

I pay my bills alot of ways- I pay alot through the mail-- I know how so yesterday! -- I pay some online- cell phone and credit card- just easier for me- and no cost for stamp- or check- I pay some in store- Fashion Bug charge- I go right to the store when I'm shopping and pay the bill too--- saves stamp and check- and I'm there anyways- I pay for my daughters flute and my blockbuster account through my checking account- directly set up- So I guess I pay in all kinds of ways- Would love to not pay any of them! lol

I'm still using the old traditional way of paying my bills. For every billing statement, I prefer to go to the bank and settled my billing there. I'm not sure if paying online is popular here in my country. It can be scary to type down any personal and billing info in the computer nowadays. Anyone can easily access the internet and still, a lot of them know where to check your personal background.

Well call me old fashioned, but I pay my cable bill in person. My gas & light bill at the market, My car insurance in person, and my cell phone by mail. And my landlord comes & picks up his rent. I don't feel I have enough bills to have to use checks or use the internet. I have a checking account, but basically use cash, that way I don't have to keep buying checkbooks.

I use a combination of bill paying methods...some still receive a paper check...some are making automated payments from my checking account.....some I pay online....each one is the most convenient for me at this time......
