Bill Payment Service
Getting Started
To sign up for INSOUTH Bill Payment, simply select the “Bill Payment” option from INSOUTH Bank’s home banking application. After you enroll, you can start using INSOUTH Bill Payment by following these two simple steps:
- Add a bill. Tell us who you want to pay by going to “Add Bill” Setup and adding a bill. After you add bills to your bills list, you can start making payments. You can also request e-bills from payees that can send electronic bills.
- Make a payment. After adding a bill, you can make a payment to the bill. Go to the “Payments Center” to schedule a single or repeating payment to the payee
Making Payments
INSOUTH Bill Payment lets you make payments and receive and pay bills online through INSOUTH Bank. You can make payments to anyone, anytime, anywhere in the United States , from your mortgage lender to your newspaper carrier. The only payments you cannot make through your bill payment service are court-ordered payments, state and federal tax payments, and international payments.
The date you select will be the date that you want the payee to receive the payment. INSOUTH Bill Payment pre-fills the Payment Date with the earliest possible payment date. INSOUTH Bill Payment determines whether a payment is sent electronically or by check, based on whether the payee accepts electronic payments and other guidelines.
If you schedule a payment for a date that falls on a weekend or holiday, the payment date will be moved to the previous business day. For example, if you schedule a payment date on a Saturday or Sunday, the payment date is moved to the previous Friday.
After a payment is scheduled, it appears as Scheduled on the Payment Center page. After the payment is processed, the status changes to Processed. The payee receives your payment on the payment date you specified and credits your account. Sometimes, however, the payee may take a few days to apply the payment to your account.
The daily limit for the total dollars of payments approved is governed by the system’s available balance in the checking account selected for making the payment. You can withdraw up to the system’s available balance as long as your account shows sufficient funds to cover your payments.
Although payments may be scheduled for the current business day or any date in the future at any time, they will only be processed once a day at our cutoff time, usually around 5:00 PM CT on any business day. Anything scheduled after the cutoff time, will not be sent out until the following business day.
e-Bills
Electronic billing lets you receive electronic bills (e-bills) online through INSOUTH Bill Payment. Some payees are able to send e-bills to their customers. If you add a payee that is e-bill-capable, you have the opportunity to request e-bills from the payee.
Once your request has been authorized, you’ll receive an e-bill from the payee within a month or so, depending on the payee’s billing cycle. You can pay the e-bill directly, and you can also continue to make single payments to the payee whenever you need to.
To stop receiving e-bills from a payee, go to “Manage My Bills”, and then select the payee. Select Click here to stop e-bill service. The payee is notified to stop sending e-bills. However, you may receive an e-bill after canceling e-bill service due to the payee’s billing cycle. Make a payment to the payee from the Payment Center page to cover the e-bill or make the payment by some other means.
If you have questions about an e-bill, please contact the payee directly. All information on the e-bill comes directly from the payee, the same as when they mail you a paper bill. Remember that you control the payment amount when you pay the e-bill.
If an e-bill amount is incorrect, make sure to contact the payee to avoid any late charges. Look on your last bill for the payee’s customer service phone number.
