Chi Omega is using billhighway.com nationally, it has been fantastic for our chapter. our treasurer's job is way easier without having to badger people for checks. If you don't pay on time, it hurts your credit score- a real-life implication. It's harsh, but learning to pay your bills on time is a pretty important life skill...

I looked through my Bill Highway material this morning and didn't find anything that supported this statement. I find that it would be hard for them to do this without your social security number, which (for my sorority) is not something that we ask of our members. I can see where if a member is sent to collections (but usually, this is a process taken after disciplinary action has been taken on the part of the inter/national organization) that a collection agency / judgment may cause a change in a person's credit history.Does anyone have experience with this? I can see where specific chapters may say this (to try to get members to pay on-time - Which is important for chapter operations), but I am just wondering if credit reporting is actually happening.

I thought you had to use your SSN for Bill Highway AND Omega Financial - no getting around it. This is why we had some people bitching about it.
