Understanding Delays in Bill Pay: Why It Takes Longer Than Expected

Paying bills through your bank might seem convenient, but banks often slow down the process, holding your money longer. Check Supply offers a better solution.

The Hidden Downsides of Traditional Bank Bill Pay

Banks typically offer bill pay services that seem convenient but come with several drawbacks. One of the most frustrating aspects is the time it takes for your check to reach its destination. Why? Banks are financially incentivized to delay the process. They deduct funds from your account immediately but delay sending the check. While your money is in transit, they invest it and collect interest.

If a check gets lost or delayed, it can take weeks to resolve, often involving lengthy phone calls to customer service to cancel the payment and recover your money.

How Check Supply Can Help

Check Supply operates differently. Instead of removing funds right away, your money stays in your account until the check is cashed. Here’s how it works:

  • Real-Time Visibility: With Check Supply, you can track when your check is printed and mailed, and when it’s cashed.
  • No Hold on Your Money: Your funds remain in your account until the check is processed.
  • Faster Resolution: If a check is delayed or lost, you can cancel it and issue a new one directly from your mobile device, avoiding time-consuming phone calls.

Why Choose Check Supply?

Check Supply offers several clear advantages over traditional bank bill pay:

  • Keep Your Money Longer: Unlike traditional bill pay, your funds aren’t deducted until the check is cashed.
  • Seamless User Experience: Check Supply streamlines the process of sending checks and provides better visibility into when your payments are received.
  • Lower Stress: Resolving issues is easier and faster, without having to deal with bank customer service.
