How do I update my information?

To update your username, password, contact information, or other account information, log into your account and click on the Settings Tab on the left side of the Dashboard page. Make sure to save any changes before leaving the page.

Do I need to login to my account to make a payment?

You can make a payment by phone at 800-457-3816 or by sending a check to PO Box 639550 Cincinnati, OH 45263. Make checks payable to greekbill, Inc. and include your member account number on the check and send it with enough time for it to be received by the due date. Online payments can only be made by logging into your account.

How often will I receive an invoice?

It depends on your chapter’s billing cycle; some chapters invoice monthly, while others invoice once per quarter, semester, or year. Any unpaid balance may be invoiced again to remind you of a past due balance. Delinquent balances are liable to be sent to collections if they remain unpaid at the chapter’s discretion.

I am no longer a member of the chapter. How do I stop receiving invoices?

If you continue to receive invoices after you have left the chapter, it is because the chapter still shows that you have a balance due. If you believe this is a mistake, you can contact an officer from the chapter or contact us about the necessary steps to close your account.

What information will you need to start our account?

Can our chapter bill monthly or once a term?

Your chapter will get up to 12 bills per year in either service. The Full Service provides both paper and electronic billing while our Lite Service is electronic only. Members have the ability to set a preference for their bill type.

How do we receive our money?

Greekbill direct deposits funds collected into the chapter’s bank account weekly. These deposits allow chapters to have complete control of their funds and keep an organized record of when they received deposits from greekbill.

What happens if someone is billed incorrectly?

Account adjustments are made online by the treasurer or by calling/emailing your chapter representative. All accounts can be easily adjusted at any time.

Do you have an assigned chapter representative, or do I just call into the office and assume anyone can assist me?

Every chapter representative in the office is trained on the system and can answer most questions; however you will be assigned your own chapter representative for more specific issues. The benefit of having an individual chapter representative is that he or she will know all the details on your account allowing for better customer service, faster answers and results.

How do members make payments?

Members can choose from a variety of payment methods, including credit card, electronic check (automatic draft from a checking account), check, and money order. Debit cards can also be used as long as they have a Visa or MasterCard logo on them. Credit card and electronic check payments can be made online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Greekbill’s website is secure for online payments; the security verification information is available at the bottom of our homepage. Members can pay by phone Monday through Friday, 9:00am to 7:00pm EST by calling the greekbill office. Members can also mail a check to greekbill or give a check directly to the treasurer. Additionally, members on payment plans can have credit card or electronic check payments processed automatically on the scheduled due dates. These options allow members a tremendous amount of flexibility which in turn leads to a higher collection rate.
