ePay Troubleshooting Tips
If you are experiencing difficulties paying your bill through ePay, follow these steps to troubleshoot, or call the Student Accounts Office for assistance.
- ePay is designed to work with Internet Explorer 6.0 and higher (with 128-bit encryption). If you are using an older browser, you may need to upgrade in order to utilize ePay. You can upgrade your browser by clicking Internet Explorer 11.0. Then follow the instructions to download Internet Explorer 11.0.
- If your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is AOL, you may need to open an additional browser session for ePay (this is because AOL’s modified browser may not work correctly with some secure sites such as ePay). To do this, access the Internet as you normally would. Once you are connected, double-click the Internet Explorer icon to open it. Use this newly opened browser to access the ePay website.
- Your user ID is your Unity ID. Be sure that you are using only your Unity ID and not your entire email address. This means that you should not include “@bravemail.uncp.edu” in the user ID box.
