How does it work?
- Once enrolled, you will continue to receive a statement each month.
- Your statement will show the amount and date your payment will be deducted from your bank account.
- A message will appear on your statement each month to keep you informed of your transactions.
When is the payment withdrawn from my account?
- Watch for a message on your bill to indicate you are on the plan.
- The date and withdrawal amount will be shown on your bill.
- Your payment will be withdrawn the morning of your billing due date.
Note: Sufficient funds or bank approved overdraft protection must be available when payment is due, to avoid an NSF charge.
