Why is my bill showing as unpaid or overdue after I paid it through another channel?
If you paid your bill using another channel it can take additional time to reach our system and show as "paid".You can disregard the due or overdue information showing in your PayPal account.

Why was I charged a late fee when I paid my bill on time?
Some billers may not consider your bill paid until 5 days after it has been sent. Depending on the billers, sometimes it can be credited right away. Please contact your biller directly to find out why your payment was considered late and to request a correction or late fee refund. The biller may ask you to provide your payment confirmation email.
