Sending Us a Message

You can send us the following types of messages:

Payment Inquiries

If you have a problem with a processed payment, you can send us a payment inquiry. A payment inquiry includes the details of the payment, the amount of any late fees or finance charges that were assessed, and any comments you provide when you send the inquiry. Our Customer Service typically responds to payment inquiries within three to four business days.

Note:  You can only submit an inquiry on a payment processed within the past six months.

To send a payment inquiry, go to Bill History, find the payment in question, view the payment details, and click the payment inquiry link. For more information, see Sending a Payment Inquiry.

General Messages

If you have any other issues or questions about the bill payment service that are not answered in the help, you can send us a general message. A general message contains only the information you provide. The message doesn't automatically include specific details because it isn't associated with a particular payment.

When you create a general message, you can select a reason for your message. Try to select a question or topic from the list whenever possible so that we can respond to your message quickly.

To send a general message:

  1. Click Create Message on either the Inbox page or the Messages Sent page.
    The Create Message page opens.
  2. In Specific Reason, select the question or topic that most closely matches the problem you are experiencing or the question you have.
  3. In Subject, type a brief description for the message.
  4. In Message, type your message and include any information that helps explain your situation or question.
  5. Click Send.
    The Message Confirmation page opens.
  6. Click the Messages link.
    The Inbox page opens.

Note: Our Customer Service typically responds to your message in one to two business days.
