Something to be aware of : although I appreciate that people may prefer to receive paper bills etc, particularly where they don't have easy access to internet/computers/printers etc ...
Companies such as banks/utilities etc can make large savings by not producing paper correspondence (plus it does help the planet by not wasting energy/resources on production/delivery), so they may actually make additional charges if you want to opt back in to paper bills🙄

Having a choice is vital. There is still a significant number who have no access to the internet or it's technology. Whether that be due to infrastructure, cost, lack of skills, age and socio-economic status, or simply don't feel the internet is relevant in their life.
As for not wasting energy and resources to help the planet, please look in an easterly direction and consider that scale of waste. 😉
@WizzyWigg - 👍 agreed : I wasn't suggesting you shouldn't have the option, just that some companies might charge for it (some sneakily remove DD payment discounts for instance)

True, it is becoming an increasing underhand tactic to penalise those who don't want to, or can't conform.
