Bill Pay troubleshooting guide

Below are useful tips that could help solve common issues Bill Pay users bump into. Still stuck? We’re here to help! Reach out to us at 800.433.1837.

I want to delete a payee, but the system won’t let me.

  • Remove any scheduled payments for the payee you want to delete. A payee with pending payments cannot be deleted.

Bill Pay isn’t working on my mobile browser.

  • Go into the preferences for your browser and make sure boxes are unchecked for both “prevent cross-site tracking” and “block all cookies.”

I'm returning to Bill Pay after a long absence, and I no longer see my payees.

  • Bill Pay went through an upgrade in the summer of 2021 that may be impacting you. The payee information was not removed, but it could be connected to another account owner. If you are a joint member on an account, ask the other account owner to log in and see if the payee information is there.
  • Additionally, it’s possible you are a joint member on a specific account or loan and not a full joint member on the entire membership — disabling you from accessing Bill Pay. We’re happy to work with the primary member on the membership to make changes that work for you.
  • Make sure you have chosen the correct membership account associated with the payees. If you have multiple memberships, you may have a different list of payees for each membership account.

Bill Pay FAQs

Why can’t I select whether my payment will be made by check, electronically, or by credit card?

When you use Bill Pay, Numerica ensures the payment transfers from your chosen account to your payee, but you are not able to control the method of payment used. The method used depends on the relationship between the Bill Pay program and the payee. In some cases, you may see a MasterCard payment on your payee statement. Bill Pay is continuously building its electronic payee relationships, so note the payment method may change over time.

How long will it take for my payment to arrive? 

It depends on the payment method the Bill Pay program is able to set up with your payee. Electronic and MasterCard payments can arrive as soon as the next business day. Check payments require 5 days to arrive.

Can I use Bill Pay to send money to another person?

Absolutely! Person-to-person payments are simple with Bill Pay. When you use the add a payee instructions (see above), simply select pay a person (instead of a company). You will have options to send the money one of three ways:

  • By email or text message, which requires the recipient to provide routing and account numbers (1-2 business days)
  • By direct deposit, which requires you to enter the recipient’s routing and account number (1-2 business days)
  • By check, which requires you to provide a mailing address (5-7 business days)
