 Bitrefill doesn't offer billpay in the US.  Correct me if I'm wrong.

If you are not living in the US, or you want to just use Bitrefill to buy gift cards and pay for them using bitcoin, then sign up at 
https://bitrefill.glencooper.com to get $5 worth of bitcoin for free after you buy $200 worth of gift cards. 
 sorry my bad bitrefill stopped in 2022

bitpay appears to do  it but i have never used them

 Normally I use a VPN with a USA IP address.

Clicked on the [Pay Bills] link within the control panel after logging in to my Bitpay account.

Got an error message that said, "Bill Pay isn't available in your area.  Currently Bill Pay is only supported within the United States.  However, we are constantly adding support for new locations.  Check back soon.   [Join waitlist]"

I thought maybe it didn't like my VPN, so I tried from my Real IP address.
Same error message. 🤷🏽‍♂️
