Yeah that article is painful, here another 'typo'...

Yahoo Bill Pay, according to Hobday, is part of a phased launch. The next phase will be a service that will offer more security features and let you receive electronic payments from the phone company, electric company and other creditors.

I think they meant bills not payments, although payments would be nice.

>>>Did the author just IMAGINE this?

Hell yes!....that's the Media License to just make shit up?

The don't have to be fully informed....they don't have to have details...they just fill in what they don't know with what they believe to be true and just publish it!

NEXT!

Couldn't you just see 1 million Consumers all calling up their Bank and asking? "Would it be OK to pay my bills on line through Yahoo!?"

The range of responses would be comical...

I might just do it, just to see what response I get out of my brain dead bank with outout a website that I have been paying my e-bills from for the last year and a half. Better yet ask them if I could do e-bills...ha..ahahahahhah!

Just cancelled my ATT Universal Card. When they asked Why?...

Benny: I want to view and pay my bill at my banks website.

Cust rep: What?

Benny: I want to view and pay my bill at my banks website.

Cust rep: Please hold.

(2 mins later)

Cust rep2: Why do you want to close your account?

Benny: I want to view and pay my bill at my banks website.

Cust rep2: You know you can view and pay through the ATT web site.

Benny: Yes I already do that, but I really want to view my statement at my banks web site.

Cust rep2: Oh. (account closed)
