I use Checkfree and I really wouldn't want to do without it any more.
I always seemed to run out of stamps, or forget to pay a bill on time,
but now, I just sit down at the computer, and pay the bill the day
I get it. It gets paid on the day you request so you keep your money
as long as possible. The fee is $9.95 per month for up to 20 transactions,
so considering the price of postage, that's not too bad.

Checkfree software does leave something to be desired which led me to
use Quicken for Windows checkfree utility. (I was using CF software
and Money Counts before) Maybe I'm just not used to it, but I'm not
sure Quicken is the best route to take here either. I think both of
these programs / services could be improved upon to make them easier
to use and less prone to error. Quicken is real dangerous, since I
have lost transactions without knowing it before.

To sum it up, though, electronic banking is definitely the way to
go. Just be sure to print out your registers and back up your accounts!
