You can “electronically” pay a lot of bills through your bank (by having the bank issue a check) for free

My bank charges a $5.99/mo fee to use their bill pay shit, and then never stopped charging me it after I stopped using it. I had to call them and complain before they took it off.

Get a new bank like yesterday.

If a bank is charging you any kind of fees for basic checking services, including out-of-network ATM usage, get a new bank.
