How would you pick out just the transactions that were to your ISP? Unless you want to manually review the transaction log, you need something consistent you can refer to in your query: like an account name (or a transaction description, but that feels easier to accidentally be inconsistent with).

Transactions... have destinations? I may not be understanding your question.

My ISP has a consistent name over time, and my bank already stores and displays that on each transaction with no effort on my part.
