Bills, Bills and more bills.

[TheOriginalJames]

I don't know what it is about November, but I was stressing out like crazy over all my bills. I have a lot, and most of them aren't that bad money wise, I make enough to pay them all and still live and have fun comfortably. My biggest gripe is all the different due dates, and getting the bills in the mail at all these different times.

I hate getting one bill a week before it's due on say the 17th, and getting another bill 3 weeks before it's due say on the 28th.

I dunno what it is, but it's stressful trying to keep up with everything when I have bills due on the 1st, 10th, 17th, 18th, 20th, 25th, 27th, and the 28th.

Anyone ever find themselves in that kind of predicament? I wonder if there is a way I can shove everything back to be due on the 28th, and pay them weekly as I do now without worry of being late on due dates. I think it'd be less stressful and easier to keep up on them.

 

[hhayes]

I don't have a buttload of bills. But the ones I do have I pay with the last two pay checks every month. Everything is due the end or the first of the month. Well I do have one I pay every week but anywho. I know my day will come lol

I've got to pay a £100 gas and electric bill before Tuesday or it's getting cut off. Don't really need that in Winter.

Thats a wierd lookin dollar sign, buddy.
:jk:

 

[TheOriginalJames]

ouch man, just ouch.

I've got everything but rent, one CC bill and my cell phone paid off. My cell phone is the biggest this month, with all this texting and trying to add text minutes to my plan, it's swollen to 122 bucks... I about choked when I opened it, but oh well. I don't mind that bill, cause it has no 'due' date persay.

most of my stuff is automatically withdrawn from my bank account. But do have 2 or 3 I have to remember to pay (rent, CC, electric) that I can't set up that way, and it's a pain in the ass enough just to remember those. Rent and CC are at the first of the month, so it's not that big a deal, but manually paying them sucks. I wish my bank could take care of all my bills for me lol.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I couldn't handle that actually, cause I vary what I pay on a lot of my bills... and sometimes I don't want/can't have it taken out at a certain given time.

 

[BreakfastSurreal]

well a lot of it is how much you save. sometimes you cant afford to do it that way, but now we pretty much have a handle on the bank acct. i havent been overdrawn in over a year now, its a nice feeling.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I actually have no idea what my balance is. I short myself $5.xx every week off my checks.

that sucks. in my area they cant turn your Heat off in the winter if it is electric heat if you dont pay your electric bill.

if that makes any sense. i wrote the damn thing and im confused by what i said. confused

further supporting my previously stated question...what are you smokin?

 

[TheOriginalJames]

lmao!

He meant that if you don't pay your electric bill they'll turn it off, and if your heat is supported by electricity (like 90% of apartments are), your heat is being turned off at the same time.

 

[Haus]

No. they can't turn off your electric in the winter. thats what i said.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

You sure about that? PA State law or something?

No electric bill payment = no electricity. Doesn't matter what time of year, or what you have supported by your electric bill.

 

[Darkstar]

Hes right....they do the same thing here...specially if you have kids

 

[Haus]

ok well i just found out they changed the law. now they can. but only like 1 tenth of 1% will get terminated but ONLY for very severe case of non payment during Dec. 1st through March 31st

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I was gonna say, that's kinda odd that the company can continue to get screwed cause you can afford 8 kids but not an electric bill.
