Bill Pay
1. Who can I pay through St. Mary’s Bank’s Bill Pay? You can securely pay virtually anyone in the United States--from national bank cards, mortgage companies, auto loans, and department stores to the newspaper carrier. Payees that are not eligible for payment through this service include governmental agencies, including but not limited to, the Internal Revenue Service, all state and local tax authorities, collection agencies, as well as recipients of court-ordered payments like child support or alimony. However, payments to government agencies for utilities such as water are permitted. Also not eligible for payment are any organizations or individuals outside of the United States. 2. How much lead-time do I need to allow for online bill payments? When scheduling payments please allow up to 2 business days for electronic payments and 5 business days for check payments. Each time you schedule a payment you will be presented with a Send On date that you select and a Deliver By date that is calculated based upon the way the payment is sent. To ensure timely delivery of your payment be sure to provide enough time between the Send On date and the due date of your bill. 3. How do I know if the payment is being sent electronically or by check? If you are unsure if a payment is being sent electronically or by check, refer to the Days to Deliver column in your Payees List (click on the payments tab and then click on payees). Electronic payments will show as 2 days to deliver and check payments will typically show as 5 days to deliver. 4. What is the Payment Guarantee? If a properly scheduled payment is not received and posted on time by the payee, we will attempt to have any late fees or assessed finance charges removed. (Finance charges are calculated based on your payment amount rather than your entire balance.) If the payee is unwilling or unable to remove them, we will pay the fees and finance charges directly to the payee. In addition, we will attempt to have your account noted appropriately to ensure that the situation does not negatively impact your credit rating. (NOTE: Please see the for important information on the limitations of reimbursable fees and finance charges.) The Payment Guarantee applies to late fees and/or finance charges associated with the late posting of a payment, provided that the following conditions are met:
