We need to make epost as a part of culture. More and more people should use it , Replacing the paper , saving some trees.

I wish political parties like Green party or Liberals could make it as part of their agenda to form some sort of law .

I travel frequently and it really helps me to stay organized whether I’m away or at home. It also helps to reduce the amount of mail in my mailbox while I’m away – great for privacy and security purposes.

I just wish that all the major billers would give me the option to receive my bills at epost. It’s frustrating to know that they can and just won’t.

I’ve inquired about it at a couple of these billers and they tell me to “simply” go to their website to sign on and view it there. For some reason, they seem to think that I am inclined to remember a user name and password for the dozen or so bills that I receive. Why would I want to bother? I’m sure they’d love to drive up their online traffic numbers and market other products/services to me “while I’m there”.

At least through epost, I sign onto my bank site, click “View my Bills” and in one shot I see my Bell, Rogers, Enersource, Visa, pay stubs, etc. I actually get annoyed with billers that have the ability to offer online billing, but don’t make it available through epost. I’d rather just get the paper copy (which ends up shredded because I can’t be bothered to file). That leads me to the best part about epost – your documents are archived for 7 years so I don’t have to file anything. I can also do year over year compares on things like my hydro bill.
Very cool.
