Received one of those medical bills for payment with enclosed envelope for mailing out. The bill was received this past Friday, [2/11] and the due date is today, 2/15.

Yup, that's a pain in the arse. And if you call, they'll claim ignorance.

I revived an old thread by accident today. Apparently, that's a violation.
I love to see old threads brought back up. Often , situations have changed and it's interesting to see the changes. Or sometimes we see the solution to a problem that wasn't there earlier.

Used to have a bill that normally received about 3 days before due. At least it was a regular bill so you knew it was coming. The company claimed they mailed these things 2 weeks prior. No way. They might print them 2 weeks prior.

I looked all over the envelope for dates going through one post office to another but wouldn't ya know, there are none visible?!!!
What's up with that? No markings on the sender's envelope other than who it's addressed to - me.

There are times I have to use the dryer. Weather, my work schedule, whatever. That part doesn't bother me. But when you try to dry sheets or blankets, they end up all balled up and tangled so the inside is all wet still. They need to invent some kind of thing, like an x-shaped thing you can stick in your dryer when you do sheets, to prevent that.

I hate this. The trick is to "babysit" the stuff by taking it out, shaking it, putting it back in the dryer. Even the extra large drums on the dryers don't really help. I am longing for summer, when I can dry stuff outside again....

Well, other than the name of the company, which I knew it was for services rendered. Meant that there were no postmarks. None that I could see anyways.
