Yes. If you cannot afford to make the full monthly payment owed at one time, you may make several smaller payments throughout the month. However, please keep in mind that this does not affect the due date for your payments. Even though you have the ability to make smaller payments throughout the month, the full amount of your payment is still due on your payment due date.
This Processing Fee covers the cost to our bank for providing this service to debtors. The Trustee does not receive this money.
There are several reasons why your online payment account may become locked. The Trustee reserves the right to lock your account and prevent a debtor from making payments online. The main reasons why the Trustee would lock an account include: A Non-Sufficient Funds payment (NSF), an online payment returned for any other reason, or your case has been Converted or Dismissed. If your account has been locked and you are still required to make payments, please send Cashier's Checks or Money Orders to the lockbox.
If your ePay account is locked for reasons other than those listed here, please contact us at 706-327-4151 during regular business hours for further assistance.
No. The Online Payment Center will store the five most recent accounts used and you will be able to choose one from the "Previously Used" dropdown menu.
No. Until your case has been reopened, please send Cashier's Checks or Money Orders to the lockbox. If your case is reopened, your Online Payment account will be unlocked. If the account remains locked even after your case has been reopened, please contact us so we can unlock the account.
The Online Payment System is an approved alternative to the use of Cashier’s Checks and Money Orders by using your Checking or Savings Account to make direct payments to the Trustee. This is an instant payment system, in conjunction with our bank, to provide a verifiable, trustworthy, and more convenient payment option.
In order to use this payment system, you must have an internet connection, know your Case Number and last four digits of your Social Security number, a Checking or Savings Account, and a valid current e-mail address.
Start by going to the Trustee's website. Next click ePay on the top menu bar of the page.
Click on the Register Now button. This will direct you to the ePay Online Payment Center so you may begin the registration process.
Please fill out the registration page and click Next when done. The next page will ask you for your Online Payment ID. This ID number consists of your case number (without dashes) and the last four digits of your Social Security number.
Case # 11-77777 and SS# XXX-XX-1234
Then the Online Payment ID is: 11777771234 (This is ONLY an example Online Payment ID)
After inputting your Online Payment ID twice, click Next. The next page will provide you one last opportunity to verify your information before submitting. Click Submit Registration if your information is correct.
Log in and begin by choosing the amount to pay. You will have the choice of making your Current Monthly Payment or an Other amount. Next, key in your Checking or Savings Account information and select what type of account it is. If you are unsure of your Checking or Savings Routing and Account numbers, please click on the image button to the right of the Routing number field to see an example. Routing numbers are always 9 digits long and to the left of your account number (Note: DO NOT use a Deposit slip to obtain your Routing number. The deposit slip Routing number is typically different from the Routing number associated with the Checking account). Click Submit Payment once your payment information has been input.
