<prompt> Human: Is it a good idea to pay my utility bills with my credit card? I have my account set up to automatically pay my full statement balance at the due date so I would never carry a balance with these bills. Is this a good idea, or should I just link my bills to my checking account? Thanks PF  <response>: I pay for some of my utilities by credit card. The comment about additional fees is spot on, but otherwise the typical rule applies for any credit card purchase. As long as you can pay off the credit card every month and not carry a balance, theres typically no reason to not use the credit card. You just have to be responsible with it.
