An interesting article by Alison Cooper on the HowStuffWorks web site points out that paying bills online is much safer than sending a check through the post office:
“Online bill payment is also safer than the snail-mail method: Your personal information is much more vulnerable to theft if it’s on paper and physically moving through the postal system.”
Also, ” You can also use your credit card to pay all your bills, which can make it easier to keep track of financial matters — and you can earn airline travel miles and other cash-based rewards while you’re at it.”
