I have several accounts setup at E*TRADE, and I use their online bill pay service. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to set a default account for online bill pay ( I can't find any options for this ), so everytime I login and go to the bill pay page, the selected account was was the first account that I setup, which isn't the account that I want my bills to be payed from. Their customer service never responded to my emails about this issue.

So, as any computer geek would do, I created a greasemonkey script that will select the desired account whenever the page is loaded - if the account isn't already selected. Problem solved.

After installing the script, you must edit it and set a value so the script knows which account to select. If you go to the bill pay page without setting this variable, a message box will appear that lists the available accounts that you can use. There are instructions to help you determine what value you need to set in the script.

If you don't know how to edit a greasemonkey script, follow these directions:

• Click on Tools->Greasemonkey->Manage UserScripts
• Select the ETrade Bill Pay script and click Edit
• If you are prompted to choose a text editor, browse to which ever one you like
• Update the script and save it
• Refresh your browser page on the bill pay site and the changes will take effect

Here are a couple screenshots of the script in action.
