Recommendations for fetching paperless bills?
I've used filthis.com for years to automatically grab PDFs for credit card bills, mortgage statements, bank statements, and utility bills. It's taken a lot of the headache out of archiving financial records.
I just heard FileThis is shutting in the next couple of months. Does anyone have service they use for automatically downloading this kind of stuff? I'm open to paid, free, hosted, and self-hosted projects.

Yeah, but you have to log in to the company's portal and click through their menus to get the PDFs. I wish eBill/eStatements would mean sending them over email, that would be easy to set up an automated way to grab them and file them.
Sending me an email notice that eBill is available is NOT useful at all, it's only a little more convenient than paper bills
Hmm. Mine come as PDF attachments, so it's easy to open them, check them, pay them, and save them.
I think a few require logging in, which is a complete pain in the ass, I agree.
But yeah, both paper and e-bill aren't as convenient as some automated file method. Good luck!
None of my mine come as PDF attachments, it's always "click here to see your statement" which goes through the login process to the company's portal. I get it, they think they're doing it for security. But email is no less secure than paper mail and they send paper statements in regular mail, so why not email?
That sucks. I don't think it's a security thing, they want you to log into their website because they can track your interactions.
I do hope that you find a solution that meets your needs.
