FNBO Direct Online Bill Pay

As an FNBO Direct online banking customer, I get regular emails about their product and services and got one yesterday about thier online bill pay service.  I’ve been using a third party online bill pay service for years and absolutely love how much time it saves me; I literally spend only 10 minutes a month checking on and paying all our bills online.

Online Bill Pay and Interest

One of the things that’s not great about my current bill pay system is that it’s linked to one of our checking accounts so we usually have a big chunk of money sitting there waiting to pay bills and not earning interest each month.

That’s why the email below from FNBO Direct caught my eye, it would be nice to have that money in a high yield savings account and quickly accessible to transfer over when I needed it to pay bills.

Here is what they have to say about their online billpay service:
