Some ideas for you (Score:1)

I may pay more with my auto insurance, but I have a real agent who helps me out and is well worth the cost. One time I completely forgot to pay my bill and he called to find out if anything was wrong. I was able to make a payment the day before my delinquency extension ran out. if you don't have an agent, that may be an option that can help in unique situations.
Another idea - can you set up automatic debits and get overdraft protection from your bank, assuming overdraft applies to automated payments.

Set up a second account, just for paying static monthly bills. Put the correct amount of money in there monthly, with a little extra as a buffer. Transfer all your direct debits (or whatever the withdrawal method is called) to this account. Never need to worry if your see sawing current account can meet the bills at the end of the month.

Nice proverb to beat :

"At the end of my money I always have a bit of month left"
