It used to be, I would walk over to the bank at lunchtime on the the 15th and pay with a check. This went on for years, then they decided to make it online and require you to pay at least a day early, sometimes 3 or 4 days early. This was a website that was maintained by the bank. Bank got bought, and I talked to the branch manager to see what was going to change. He says nothing will change. I specifically ask about the payroll taxes that are paid on a bank website. Nothing will change.

Turns out, bank shut down that website, so I paid late. Ask the guy about it after, blank look, why would we provide that service? Because you promised nothing would change. So I switch banks, and figure out there is a federally run website to pay your taxes. This worked three times, then never able to log in again, despite password resets, starting over with a new username and password, no good. I have just paid it on the telephone the last year, they have an 800 number for an automated system. Today, number is disconnected, so I call the support line. I ask if the number to call has been changed, nope.

I can hardly wait to see what happens next month.
