When I get caught up and sort everything out (which willprobably be never) I will set it all up that way. As it is, I pay most of them online, but don't have it set up the way I want it.
I officially pay NO recurring bills by check! Every single bill comes online, I don't even get paper statements. And I pay all my bills the day I receive them, so I don't have to worry about making sure the account is good in 2-3 weeks when it comes due. I'd set them up for auto-pay if I weren't paranoid they'd send an incorrect bill and wipe out my checking account [we keep just enough in it for 1.5 months of usual expenses].
We pay all of our bills online, but they're all set up to automatically pay. Our rent, water, electric, car insurance, phone bill, etc. is all automatically taken out of our checking account each month. It's fantastic.
I pay everything I can online! My husband, however, is a little more old-fashioned. Not only does he pay our auto and life insurance by check, he doesn't even SEND it by mail. He DRIVES it over to the office. It blows my mind; I think he might be trying to save the postage. He's very... thrifty.
