The point of the story was that if you have something critical to communicate, you can't do it using the same methods that are also used for low-priority mostly junk and expect it to be acted upon. Surely a mortgage servicing company can afford to FedEx an envelope. I wouldn't expect Influx to do so.

For that matter, registered mail is another option that isn't as expensive as fedex... there's other options that are slightly more costly, and more noticeable than sending via the same structure that junk mail goes through.

I expressly don't use automated payments for my mortgage and auto loan(s) as I don't want to have an account miss... I didn't know my mortgage was sold/changed a couple months ago until I went online to change. The same happened with an auto loan a few years back as well.
