This is as common as bread and butter in Australia. You provide your bank account (or credit/debit card) details to the company or even govt (gas, electricity, water, car registration, insurance, internet, mobile etc.) and a so called direct debit authority and the company will just debit from your account on the due date.

However, I'm so aware of the American TV trope of receiving "bills" in the mail and having to remember to pay them that I wonder if it's just something that has stuck as a cliché even if it's no longer the case, or whether it is still the ordinary way of handling these payments in North America.
