So, where do we sign up? I can't find a signup place anywhere on your web site. I found CheckFree E-bill's sign up place just fine. I got my electric bill from them.

Look at the date of the original message and the reply. Gack! I hope this is the kind of response time customers should expect out of TP. If it is, it's smooooooth sailing for CheckFree.
