Passage: Today I had to pay some bills online . So of course , I had to check my online bank statement . I went to my banks website to put my sign-in information into the appropriate boxes . Once the computer had verified who I was I was able to check both my savings and checking accounts to see which one had enough money in it to cover my bills . I went to the electric company website and filled out my account information so they would bring up my bill owed amount . Clicking on the pay now button I put in my savings account routing and account numbers so they would take the money from my savings account . Once I had confirmed who I was and that I had permission to use the account to pay my bill online they took the money from my account and I was able to log out of both the electric company and my bank account . Question: Why did they choose the savings account? Option1: The account had enough money to cover the electric bill. Option2: The account was easier to access.
The account had enough money to cover the electric bill.
