Question Posted Tuesday September 26 2006, 11:17 am

Is there anyway I can create a small Windows pop up window to automatically pop up on my computer on the same day of every month to remind me to pay my cell phone bill?

Yes.

If you have Microsoft Office with Outlook, you can create a task in there that will tell you on the same date every month to pay your phone bill.

If you do not, you can create a notepad file saying "Pay Phone Bill" or something similar, and use Windows Scheduled Tasks (located in the Control Panel) to open that file on the same day of every month, effectively reminding you to pay your bills and not be cut off.

You could use a reminder feature in your email, or use a home voicemail system to call your house every month.

Or you could do what everyone else does, which is pay the bill when it arrives. A good reminder is always the one shoved under your nose every month at the same time. TOo bad the mail doesn't get delievered virtually every day.. oh wait!
That JSUT MIGHT work.

If you pay online, there's a way to get reminder emails. Plus it comes automatically.
