Set up your payee list when you first start using the service by adding the payees to whom you want to send payments. You only need to add each payee once. You designate the day you want the payment to arrive at the payee when you make a payment. When a payment is scheduled, it shows up in the “Payment Activity” section as Scheduled. The status changes to Processed once we start processing your payment. The payee receives your payment and credits your account.
If you use this service, you do not have to get in touch with your payees. We include your payee account number and other relevant information with each of your payments so that the recipients can properly credit your account.
When you schedule a payment, you choose the day you want the money to arrive at the recipient. The payment is processed 4-5 days prior to this date. On the due date, money will be taken out of your account.
Check “Payment Activity” after the payment date to see if the payment’s status is Processed. The payment has been sent to the payee if the status is Processed. Additionally, you can verify whether money has been taken out of your checking account. For instance, check the withdrawal history for your checking account through online banking. To check if the payee received and credited the payment, you can also call them. The payee may occasionally take a few days to credit your account.
Take the following actions to fix the issue if the payment is not credited in a timely manner:
- Check to see if the payee credits the payment to your account five days after the scheduled payment date.
- Call the payees customer service line to check if they received the payment and credited your account if it is not applied to your account. When you call, gather information from the payee (i. e. Name of the person helping you, contact information, the amount of late fees, etc. ).
- Ask the payee if they will waive any late fees or finance charges if you have been charged a late fee but scheduled your payment on time.
- Find the payment in the “Payment Activity” section if it is not credited to your account or if the payee refuses to waive late fees. To send us a message that includes the details you obtained from the payee, click “View” in the Payment column, then click “Inquire about this payment.”
Depending on whether the payee accepts electronic payments and other factors, Online Bill Pay decides whether the payment will be made electronically or by check. For instance, a check is printed and sent to the payee because some payees, such as individuals, are unable to receive electronic payments. The processing of payments ensures that they reach the payee on schedule whether they are made electronically or by check.
Even if Online Bill Pay sends a paper check to the payee, the payments made through Online Bill Pay will show up as a Bill Payment on your America First statement. The paper checks may occasionally be drawn against your payment account. In this case, your account statement will show the payments alongside your other checks.
You can view an e-bill (electronic bill) online through Online Bill Pay. It is an electronic version of a paper bill.
