I love being able to do my banking online, in the comfort of my home and mainly away from long line-ups at the bank. Unless I absolutely have to, you're rarely ever going to see me stepping into a bank.
A new study shows that 51 percent of Internet users in Canada and the US are now paying at least one monthly bill online. Unlike back in 2004 when only 33 percent were doing so. I guess more people are stepping up with the times, saving trees and putting their good ol' Internets to work!
What about you? Do you pay your bills online?

I pay every bill online. If i didn't have such a fabulous online bill pay system through my bank, i'd be lost. They will even send my rent check on my behalf saving me postage, and some sanity.

2I do a lot of mine online. Some of the companies, like my local phone company, don't offer online bill pay.
3Yupp I pretty much pay ALL my bills - other then rent to my boyfriend - online
4Yup, every single one.
5It's so convenient I don't know how I ever did without it.
I don't enjoy going to the bank at all.
I second that, I didn't even go to the bank to get my auto loan. I think I used the bank as a shortcut one day to get to the other side of the street.. that was the last time I was actually in the bank.
6I pay everything online! I hate when I have to send something in the mail lol. Its very convenient to be able to log on whenever you want to pay something - especially for me who is very forgetful!
7I looooooooove PNC's online bill pay!
8i pay all my bills online. when your bank does bill pay you might as well. i just click the tab, enter the amounts and hit submit. it's the greatest thing ever invented as far as i'm concerned.
9I pay all bills online, only thing I write a check for is rent.
10We pay almost all of our bills online. The only one we can't pay online is our water bill, but city hall is only four blocks away, so we just drop it off there on our way somewhere.
11I totally pay almost ALL my bills online. It's awesome.
12I pay my cell, household bills and car payment online I tried paying my insurance but Allstate didn't have a good setup at the time so I just call it in now.
13All my bills are paid online. (Except a few that are paid by credit card... but then I pay off my credit card online.)
I looked at my checkbook a few days ago (to get my account number so someone could pay ME online) and it turns out I've only used seven checks ever. Two of them were voided.
14I pay all of my bills online except my rent.
15I pay everything except my mortgage online - that's not an option yet, sadly.
16I pay the majority of my bills online.
17For those of you saying that the company doesn't offer it, does your bank?
I have completely stopped making account through every bloody company and just use my BillPay through my bank. That way I just go to my online Banking and I can check on all my bills sent and it can be automated. You can sell an electronic check to ANY company or ANY person!
Definitely go look into that! It's free for me.
18100% online...it's so much easier!
19Phone and credit card- always. Insurance about half the time. Neither insurance company we use has their online bill pay setup in a really great way, so I can only do it when I have the policy numbers sitting in front of me.
20Always pay my bills online. I haven't received a paper anything in about two years.
21I HATE banks. They are notorious for poor customer service. If I had to go into a branch every time I needed something, All my money would be in a box under my mattress. And thats what I did for years until online banking came along. So online banking has made a world of difference for me.
22I pay all my bills online and I love it!
23Plus, not having paper statements saves trees!
I pay the majority of my bills online. It's so convenient.
24Yep, though some are automatic, and some I have to initiate each month.
25Saves paper and postage!
I pay all of them online, except rent, which I take to the office. I don't know how I was able to pay with checks through the mail before.
26I only pay my Comcast and AT&T bills online; the rest I pay through checks and mail. My grandma sends me new stamps every month; gotta use them up! It really sucks that the postage rate keeps changing on me.

and Tidalwave is right! Most bank offer it and it gives you more control than when having to log in to EACH company. You can even send payments to a person instead of a company. I send my bf's mom his car insurance pmt through our bank; she gets a check on my behalf. It's sooo much easier and cheaper; especially now that postage is so high!
28Absolutely!
29I pay all my bills online, except for my car payments. For whatever reason, my lenders don't offer it, which is a bummer!
30Yes I do with the exception of my rent.
31i pay everything online. i only go to the bank when my dad sends me a US money order.
32I pay a couple of things online but not everything. I usually call in my car payment, insurance payment and credit cards
