Today, consumers no longer have to wait for the mail to receive important documents, bills, or personal correspondence. Thanks to the Internet, everything is a simple click away. No more worries about transit time for payments, checks getting lost in the mail, or waiting for important information to be disseminated to customers. Now, everything is almost instantaneous. But, until now, no one has thought of crediting the consumer for opting to receive and pay bills via an online transaction. When new clients sign up with US Direct for online statements, bill pay, and information, the choice to "Go Green" will yield an automatic credit of $20 on the first bill.

Personally, other than saving a few thousand trees to continue making clean air for the planet, going green is simply the easiest method of keeping track of all the bills and other pertinent information. With tough economic times, many consumers are playing the shuffling game to stay afloat. What bill needs paid tomorrow, and which accounts can be settled on the next payday. Often, the money comes in at the last minute, and it is a nervous guess as to whether the payment will be credited before late charges are assessed.

No anymore! With online access to bill pay, a debit card, and an Internet connection, submit a payment before the close of the business day deadline, and have it instantly credited to the account. However, even if an individual can afford to pay a recurring bill a year in advance, the convenience is simply worth taking advantage of the offer to save with Go Green.

Forget writing out checks, licking the nasty tasting envelopes, and finding a stamp. Then, unless the residence is right in front of a community mail box, it takes time and energy to find a receptacle to send the payment on its way. Forget shredding mounds of paper after the bills have been paid, to prevent the possibility of identity theft. With online billing, Internet users can save the bill in a computer file, look back for reference at a later date, and not have to find space for a file cabinet until time to make confetti.

In addition, who likes to get stacks of junk mail every week? Important announcements from US Direct will be sent straight to the customer's inbox. Simply read it, decide if it contains any pertinent information, and delete it-or save it-as the case may be.

In recent years, the push to Go Green has increased substantially. With the planet's resources dwindling, people need to learn ways of conserving the blessings most of the population tends to take for granted. The change does not necessarily mean anyone has to do without or sacrifice a way of life. It simply means finding better alternatives.

Out of curiosity, look up how many trees it will take to make a ton of paper. The amount may seem like a lot, but pick up a batch of computer paper before thinking approximately 24 trees to a ton of paper is no big deal. Trees literally clear the air and provide oxygen for humanity. While paper is a necessary part of life, why not conserve whenever possible?

Even for consumers who are not conservation-minded, US Direct's idea to Go Green is a win-win solution for everyone. Not having to send out so many paper statements saves the company time and money. The savings is used to reinvest into providing better services to the customer and also passing along the benefits through instant credit when new consumers sign up for paperless service. Save a tree, save some money, and GO GREEN!
