 The X or Z in front of Wachovia depends on which bank you used before the
name change from First Union or another acquired bank. Original First Union
users ended up with the X.

 Oooops, my error. I have zWacovia and I was an original First Union customer
before the merger that initiated the name change to Wachovia.

Does this mean I can now pay bill directly through Quicken? Since I am a
new customer I was not able to do that in the past. I had to use the
Wachovia web site, which I do not want to do. I might just have to
change banks again and pay the fee to use Quicken the way I have
continued to use it for years. BTW it is Quicken 2006.
I did make the changes and was able to download as before. Now I wonder
if I'll be able to upload a payment. I hope so, but have my doubts.
I have complained long and hard that they have all the information on
their site on using Quicken fully, but as a "new" customer I have not
been able to do anything except download transactions.

You don't need to change banks to use quicken bill pay. It works just
fine with my wachovia account. I download from wachovia, pay through
quicken.

Of course, I'd rather not pay the quicken fees, but except for that
there is, AFAIK, no difference between this and using wachovia bill
pay directly from quicken.
