I have heard that some banks and billers don't want customers to have this capability (to set up recurring payments). (Transpoint doesn't have it either...) The reason is that billers want to sell ads and post notices on the bills every month and the want to have those eyeballs as often as possible.

A short-sighted approach if you ask me.

<<In other words, you can't schedule multiple payments to the same payee, without setting up the payee up as recurring. Not a big deal, but something CheckFree can handle, FWIW.>>

Actually, this is a very nice feature that I use via Quicken on a regular basis. It becomes really convenient if you travel or want to pay a bill on your own "irregular" installment plan.
