Pending Payments



What Can I Do?

 

The Pending Payments section presents a quick summary of the approved payments that have not been processed yet.

Note: You may have a pending payment that has started processing. In this case, you cannot change or cancel it.

Viewing the Pending Payments

This section lists the bills, the amount of the payment, and the pay date. It also provides a total amount for all approved pending payments.

Tip: If you're having trouble recognizing a bill, you can move your mouse over a biller to see the biller's full name.

To go to the Pending Payments section:

  1. Click Payment Center on any page.
    The Payment Center opens.
  2. Go to the Pending Payments section.

Note: If the Unapproved Payments section appears instead, you have payments that must be approved before they can be processed. You can either approve the payments, or click Pending Payments to open the Pending Payments section. For more information, see Unapproved Payments.
