So, I noticed last night with slight bemusement that a bill from my internet provider popped up. This is supposed to come out on the first. I mean they couldn't wait until Monday morning? I can see not putting out a bill on Sunday..but I thought it was annoying it came out a day early. Also my auto pay for another bill was several days early..sigh.

It was annoying.. Probably not worth complaining about though. These days it seems like companies are so anxious about getting their money.

@LadyDuck Like some places will tell you you have a payment due weeks ahead of time. Yeah, no kidding..by the time it is due, I will forget.

@snowy22315 I have this feeling, better one day before than a day after.

Usually auto pay is done on the same day each month. What gives?

I thought about cancelling when I noticed it
But I do owe it, and technically they are correct

I would have thought even with auto-pay that it wouldn't come out until Monday. Guess online banking never closes.

Well, I just got the bill notice for the home internet. I am not sure when the auto pay for the phone was done. Before it was supposed to I know that.

My power company sends me an email a few days before the first of every month. I did pay the bill on Sunday.
