DIRECT PAYMENT – PAY THE EASY WAY
Direct payments are authorizations that you, the consumer, can enroll in through each company you pay periodically. They will receive payments that are due by electronically deducting them from your Financial Partners account. Simply fill out the information for direct payment that is often offered when you receive your usual billing. If this is not available, contact the company's billing office to find out what you can or need to do to complete this process.
WHY BOTHER?
Direct payments save you time and money. You won’t have to write out as many checks, you won’t need to buy as many envelopes, and you won’t need to buy stamps for sending in payments. Lost, forgotten, or misplaced payments are also eliminated, as is the trip to the mailbox.
Each biller will still send you a notice of how much is to be paid from your account, as well as the date of payment. You simply record the amount to be paid in your checkbook on the appropriate date, but skip writing the check!
Here are some examples of bills that may be paid automatically:
Phone bill
Electric bill
Gas bill
Cable bill
Credit card payments
Newspaper bill
Mortgage payments
Insurance premiums
Car payments
Check with your individual billers for their ability to setup direct payments for you.
