We have one utility company that charges a fee to pay online and we refuse to pay extra for that 'service.' We send them a check, via snail mail, every month.
My utility company stopped taking cash for covid. Since they had "LOST" checks but cashed them in the past without the payment to my account I paid in cash.
Well, after 5 years of no payment they started to threaten cut-off. So I paid it. And the kicker was they too had a charge for online payment that was removed . So I got 5 years of points for no cost.
The water bill here just changed to that same type thing. Third party collects online or even auto debit payments and there is a fee for it. Mom refuses lol. She mails them a physical check.

Your bank or credit union could probably do a "billpay" payment. At no expense to you, they will cut a check and mail it on your behalf.
