Bill Pay (lemmy.ml)

Curious What folks think about Banks Bill Pay feature?

My thoughts, some Banks use third parties to service bill payments, and request ebills. Seems like end user would be opening themselves to data harvesting by third party. Additionally, in my experience when one disables ebill requests, there is no confirmation sent from ebill payee that data is no longer shared with the third party.

Here where I live the ebill feature doesn't work properly and if I want to pay the bills with my credit card, I just enter all the receiver data manually and save it as a preset. I think you can do it too.

Yup this is possible. I am more inclined to initiating payment from credit card side.
