Then I get this private... Okay, I'm taking the plunge here. I decide if I got so damn much faith and stock in this company, believe in the industry, and it's future(like I traded the search engines before I used a computer regularly). Why the hell ain't I paying my bills online? SO I figured I would go for it on the Yahoo! deal. I'm filling out the information, clicking "next page" or what ever. then it comes time for me to enter my SS number and my checking account number. Nope. can't do it. Only have two checking accounts, and even freak about giving my SS#, anywhere. Now they want it on the net? I know it's secure, but it's the phobia. Believe me, I'm J6pack when it comes to this. And I wonder how many others abort at the same page I did? Both my accounts have way too much information that I want NO more than necessary to know about. Should I open a third account and keep a minimum amount in there? Or doesn't it really matter? I know NetB@nk offers good deals. should I just go head first and open an account there solely for bill pay? Easy way out...keep you same bank you trust and just try it out...don't switch banks...just try it out. If you don't like it let me know.
