It is a long time ago that I got an everything counts account. I use
Quicken to make payments from that account. It's done through the "on
line center". I have 800 446-5331 as a phone number for customer and
technical support.
The whole thing is so transparent for me, I have no idea how it works,
but it is more "direct connect" than "Quicken BillPay", I believe.
