| Q: Why do you allow 10 days for mailed in payments? |
A: Some merchants do not accept electronic payments and are paid by check, which is sent by regular mail. The post office states that they require 10 mailing days for first class mail so that is what we disclose. However, most mail is delivered within 3 to 4 business days and that will include bill payments. Just as you would allow mailing time for a check you send, we suggest you do the same with this service.
A: You can pay virtually anyone in the United States. There are organizations that will not accept payments via Bill Payment, such as, the IRS and other taxing entities.
| Q: What happens if I set up a payment but I do not have the funds in my account? |
A: Using Bill Payment is just like writing a check or using your MAX ChekCard®. You must have sufficient funds in your account; otherwise, normal overdraft procedures and charges will be assessed and service may be discontinued.
| Q: How are payments deducted from my account? |
A: Payments are deducted by direct ACH debit through federal reserve banking channels.
| Q: How quickly are Bill Payment transactions posted to my checking account? |
A: In approximately two business days.

A: You have immediate access to three months of bill payment history. In addition, our processor maintains bill payment records for up to two years.
| Q: Who should I call if I have a question regarding Bill Payment Processing? |
A: Please call the Bill Payment Customer Service Department at 1-800-823-7555.
| Q: Who should I call if I have a question about how to use the Bill Payment system? |
