So I put my account on "autopilot" and someone pulls a lot more than
they should how do I deal with that separately?

That would warrant calls to bank and whoever did it. Has never happened to
me, so far knocking wood.

One of the best things that ever happened to prevent forgetting to pay
bills is online banking. As bills come in I simply log on to the bank
and post them instead of putting them in a pile. If someone sends a
bizarre bill it doesn't get posted.

That's fine if you don't go on vacation or off to help your kid with a
family problem (happy or not). I'm sometimes away for more than a few
days. Also, I keepmy money in my checking account for a longer period if I
do the pull method. With the push you'd better pay a few days early to
avoid problems with late payments.

With my bank I can schedule payments a couple of days before they are due
and the funds are not taken from my account until that day. When we are
going to be away, we just schedule any payments that will be coming due
while we are away. Nothing is automatically taken from my account that I
don't schedule myself, in advance.
