>>>Maybe you don't want to pay a middleman to do what you can do for yourself?

Most likely you will welcome the middleman(unless you are a bank). Portals such as Lycos and Yahoo are stretched to begin with, most IMHO, would welcome the middleman.

Plus you imply that if you do it yourself, vs. middleman, that you can do it cheaper, this is not always the case. BLLS is a different case than other Portals because BLLS is actually in the business of presenting bills for smaller billers. Yahoo, etc., really have no interest in processing transactions (they have said so in the press).
