- I use Checkfree and I really wouldn't want to do without it any more.
- I always seemed to run out of stamps, or forget to pay a bill on time,
- but now, I just sit down at the computer, and pay the bill the day
- I get it. It gets paid on the day you request so you keep your money
- as long as possible. The fee is $9.95 per month for up to 20 transactions,
- so considering the price of postage, that's not too bad.
-
- Checkfree software does leave something to be desired which led me to
- use Quicken for Windows checkfree utility. (I was using CF software
- and Money Counts before) Maybe I'm just not used to it, but I'm not
- sure Quicken is the best route to take here either. I think both of
- these programs / services could be improved upon to make them easier
- to use and less prone to error. Quicken is real dangerous, since I
- have lost transactions without knowing it before.
-
- To sum it up, though, electronic banking is definitely the way to
- go. Just be sure to print out your registers and back up your accounts!
