How will you be able to tell? Some companies have never sent me a correct
bill on the first try the entire time I was a custoemr. I doubt they will
suddenly be able to send me a correct bill just because its now the year 2000.
There will be small glitches in various systems, but you will never hear
about them because most will be fixed before too many customers notice.
More likely things will get blamed on Y2K which are really dumb operator
errors.
