Grace: Did you already pay the Bills for this month?

Will: Let me see that. That can’t be right. I paid the Minimum payment on the last bill. I Better call and talk to Customer service tomorrow. I’m sure it’s a Mix-up.

Grace: I really hope so. The last time we were late with the payment, I tried calling them and telling them that The check was in the mail, but they didn’t buy it.

Will: That’s different. Don’t worry about it. I’m sure I’ll Get it straightened out. Worse comes to worst, we’re only a month late. They won’t send the Collection Agency after us.

Grace: I know I can count on you to take care of it. I just don’t want this late payment to affect our Credit rating.

Will: Leave it to me. I’ll take care of it on Monday. It’s as good as done.
