I do pay my cable provider, cell phone service, and other things a month prior to service.

Even now if I have to have blood drawn the lab swipes my debit card and puts a hold on it until my health insurance pays for it.

I personally charge on Friday for the week after services are rendered but I have good families for the most part. If I was not comfortable with the set up I would most certainly charge before services are rendered..... JMO
