Didn't know where to put this, so I put it in this forum. I don't bank online. Have been very leary of it. However, I am so tired of drowning in paperwork, bills and handwritten checks, it's becoming more tempting. What got me to reconsider was I'm hearing more and more people do it and have had no security issues. Also, my mother recently was in a large, university hospital in Chicago. Amazing what they're doing now with laptops. Not once in her ten day stay did I see a chart with written notes on it. Every room, from ICU to regular, had notebook computers. All notes, charting, progress, physician's orders, etc. was input into the laptop. It was all very streamlined and there was no confusion trying to decipher a physician's handwriting and what appealed to me most: no paper clutter anywhere. I would love my home office to function in such an organized, no clutter fashion.
So the tempation to pay bills online is definately growing.
So I'm looking for input: pros, cons, personal experiences, etc. TIA ~Kat
