Don't do it! At minimum, have your account transferred to a relative you trust. I got stuck away in the state mental hospital, where they are perpetually stuck in 1982 so there is no internet, by my employer (I worked for the state government) for 6 months. You never know what curve balls life is going to throw at you. I won't be signing up for automatic payments anymore either. Drained my checking account even though I clearly wasn't using my cable modem, gym membership, cell phone, electricity, etc.
