Default Mildly annoyed:

This is very off topic, and I probably won't get any response, but just wanted to vent.

I have a total of 13 monthly bills that vary from credit cards to loans to electric to internet (not including rent). 13 different bills that I budget very carefully using a primitive method (excel spreadsheet).

Anyway, out of all these bills. All of them from Bank of America to Verizon to Dish network to Central Maine Power, out of all of them, guess which one is the only one that I can't pay online? The only one that I get a paper bill in the mail and have to either mail back a check or call in a card number? The only one I can't pay online? You guessed it, my frigging internet bill. (Great works Internet out of Biddeford Maine if you wanted to know)

Isn't it ironic? Don'tcha think?

wow man that is ridicu****inlous. I have a power bill that I set up for "e-bill" which apparently isn't the same as "automatic withdrawal" so I got a power bill for 500 dollars the other day since it was 2 months past due.

HAHAHA. It's like they'll milk you for anything. The energy companywould rather you kill trees than waste their time using your credit card. Insane.

Central Maine Power used to do that, untill I was 3 months past due and they called me. I told them I would gladly pay, over the phone with my debit card. "Well there is a 15$ charge for 'pay-by-phone' service" she says, to which I reply "Listen lady, you already made the call. If you want your fu**ing money you will take my debit card number right now and not charge me a dime for it."

She took the number and said that was "the last time". Next month they ghad a "E-check" option on the internet.

I have always wanted to say "Listen Lady....", but haven't in recent memory had the chance. Good stuff, power to the customer !
