Description
It is hard to believe that hundreds of billions of bills and updates are still sent out annually around the globe. That takes a lot of trees and energy to make happen.
The hurdles to e-billing are dropping away as more people embrace the technology and see the time-saving benefits. Plus the environmental arguments are simple: less paper waste and pollution.
Join the trend and simplify your life at the same time.
Tips
• Go for it now! Every time a bill comes to your home, go to that company and switch to e-billing immediately!
• The same goes for your bank and all of your monthly statements if you still receive paper copies.
• Do your emails tend to get lost in the shuffle? Consider setting up a separate email address for your household billing and finance.
• Take advantage of the benefits of e-billing, such as setting up automatic payments. Save yourself the time and worry of needing to remember to pay your bills on time.
• Have a less tech-savvy close friend or family member? Help them get set up with e-billing. If they can use a computer they can probably do e-billing with a little support. On the other hand, if you do not feel comfortable setting up e-billing, recruit someone to help!
