Bill Receipt
How do you get my billing information?
When you register a payee, you provide their name, billing address, account number
(if applicable), and other pertinent information. This is the only information we
need to accurately issue payments.
Electronic bills are posted immediately to your account. A bill we retrieve from your
biller's website will appear within 24 hours, and your payee's billing address will
not change. Bills we scan will be posted to your account within 24-48 hours of receipt.
What happens to hard copies of my bills that
have been scanned?
Your original paper bill is stored for three months from the day of receipt, after
which it is shredded for security purposes and recycled. Paper bills received from
your payees are converted into electronic form within 24-48 hours from when they are
received at our processing center. Once converted into electronic format, your bill
is available to you at a summary level, at a detailed transactional level, and as an
exact image of the complete original bill.
Summary and transactional information is always available online. Bill images are
maintained online for one year from the date the bill is posted online. After one
year, your bill images are archived offline for up to eight years.
What if some piece of information other than
a bill is sent to you?
Solicitations that we receive on your behalf (such as credit card offers) are shredded
and recycled. Any non-bill notices, such as a rate change, will be scanned and delivered
to you. Account-related items sent to us, such as a calling card, are immediately
forwarded to your home mailing address. All other items received, such as merchandise
ordered online, cannot be accepted and will be returned to the sender. Please be sure
to indicate your home as the shipping address when ordering items online, through
catalogs, etc.
What happens if a bill gets lost?
We log and track every bill that we receive to assure it is delivered to your
account. As an added level of service, we can detect if a regularly occurring
bill has not been received when it was expected, and will send an automatic e-mail
notification to alert you that it has not arrived.
How do I end delivery of a bill you scan and
resume receiving my paper bill at home?
To cancel online delivery of a bill, from the My payees page, Payee Details page, or
Make Payments page, click the "Cancel e-bill" link. You should begin receiving your
paper bill at home within 1-2 billing cycles. To expedite the process, you may want
to contact your payee directly and request that they update your billing address.
I'm receiving a bill at home. How do I
begin receiving it online?
If you have already set up the payee, to begin online delivery of a bill from your
navigation links click My payees. From your list of payees, within the E-Bill Status
column, click the "Set up e-bill" link. You should begin receiving your bill online
within 1-2 billing cycles.
If you have not yet set up this payee, from your navigation links click Add new payee.
During the setup process, you will be asked if you want to receive the bill online.
Why does the "Action needed" link appear
on the My Payees and Payee Details page?
This link appears when we need additional information from you regarding your bill.
