Have you ever wanted to set up an automatic payment plan but
have been hesitant because you have never done it before? If your answer is
yes, you are not alone. Anyone who has set up an Auto-Pay plan can tell you
that it can be scary the first time, but in reality, it’s extremely beneficial
and secure. Here are 4 reasons why:
Reduced risk of identity theft. Many people believe paper
bills are safer than electronic payments. However, experts say a paper bill
sitting in a mailbox with your name and account number is actually putting
yourself at a higher risk for identity theft than electronic payment.
Lower cost. Checks, stamps, ATMS and your time - four things
that are not free. However, Auto-Pay is. Paper billing is spending more money
for less convenience.
Stay on time. Late payments occasionally decrease your
credit score and late fees are no fun either. Auto-pay allows effortless and
timely payments.
Peace of mind. You never have to miss a payment and you can
add ‘stress’ to the list of things you won’t miss when you set up automatic
payments. Your amount that you have to pay will automatically come out on the
same day of your choice each month.
Setting up automatic payments at your storage facility will
allow you to worry less and keep you from jolting out of bed in the morning
when you realize you forgot to pay for your storage unit.
