Is my on-line payment received immediately by Eastex?
A- No, payments are not immediate. Payments made through the on-line payment system before 1:00 pm CST on business days are processed by Eastex the same day, overnight. Payments sent after 1:00 pm CST are processed by Eastex the following business day. The schedule for payment processing and transfer of funds within the banking system may vary. While it is anticipated that Eastex and the banking system will complete most transactions within twenty-four (24) hours of the day designated, it is understood that due to circumstances beyond the control of Eastex, particularly delays in handling and posting payments by slow-responding companies or financial institutions, some transactions may take a day or even a few days longer. The terms and conditions agreement you accept to use the on-line payment system require payments to be sent a minimum of 3 business days prior to the due date to avoid late payments.
