Money order vs. a Check?
A money order is a prepaid payment method that is not tied to a bank account, ensuring that the funds are guaranteed. In contrast, a check (especially a personal check) is linked to a bank account and can bounce if there are insufficient funds.

What is an e-Check?
An e-Check is a way for individuals and businesses to make
payments from their checking account electronically. An e-check is essentially an electronic payment from your checking account. In order to use an e-check you will need to have the bank's routing number, your checking account number and of course your name as listed on the account.

Your bill is due on the 25th of every month or the next business day if it falls on a weekend.
