Miner,

Thank you for clearing this up for me.

There really haven't been a lot of problems reported here, so no one
thing stands out. Personally, I find that matching up my bank's payee
names with the traditional payee names I'm used to was not a clean,
clear process, e.g., "CITIBANK CREDIT CARD" (My bank's) and "Airline X
VISA" (my name) are the same (but how do you know that). It's
advantageous to do this because then the payment gets sent
electronically (in 1- 2 days) as opposed to your bank cutting a check
and sending the check to the payee's address.

Yes, of course. Your bank would need your consent, separately, to stop
sending monthly statements to you.

After you get comfortable with the process, you can stop using your
traditional paper checkbook register altogether. You should have a 100%
rock-solid data backup method in place and working to do this. And, as
they say in the unofficial faq for this ng, exercise the restore process
to be sure it works, too.

Default On Line Bill Pay?

I am planning on using an on line bill pay service that
uses MSmoney? Is it hard to set up? What type problems
can I expect. Does one still have the ability to write
checks (paper) and is the security safe? Does one still
receive the monthly statements by snail mail. Do you use
the same check registry? I know, lots of questions but
want to make sure I don't run into lots of problems.
Thanking all in advance.

Jim Turner
