AutoPay – Automatic Bill Payment
The
Smart Way to Pay Your Monthly Invoice
Save time. Save postage. Avoid hassles and late payments (and late payment
charges)! Why spend your valuable time writing and mailing checks when you
could avoid this chore. Now there's a simpler, more convenient way to pay
your monthly invoice – AutoPay.
With AutoPay, you can forget about writing checks, buying stamps, or
worrying about late or missed payments. Instead, you can enjoy the
convenience of paying your invoice automatically each month. You've got
better things to do with your time than pay another bill.
Here’s how it works:
By
completing the authorization form, you will authorize your bank to pay the
amount of your monthly payroll invoice directly from your checking or
savings account. Your regularly scheduled bill will be automatically paid
on the due date. AutoPay eliminates overlooked bills and the deduction is
automatic.
You'll continue to receive your monthly invoice in the mail. Pay it as usual
until the following message appears on your bill: "YOUR BANK WILL PAY
ON DUE DATE." Your payment will be shown on your next invoice and
on your bank statement.
Sign Up
If
you would like to sign up for AutoPay, simply complete the application on
the last page of this newsletter and mail it to us or give it to the
delivery person when your next payroll is delivered.
Please note that it may take up to three weeks for APS to obtain
authorization from your bank to begin AutoPay.
Once your enrollment is processed, you will see the message "Thank you
for using AutoPay. This bill is for your records only. Do not pay."
on an upcoming bill. This message lets you know that you are now an active
participant on the AutoPay program and that you will not need to send a
payment for the amount due. Proofs of payment will also appear on your bank
statement.
