using phone for internet finance safe?
I know using computer on park wifi can be compromised and is not secure. To do banking and bill paying how safe is using iphone over the telephone connection?

I would use what is comfortable.
For very security sensitive stuff, I like using a direct 3G/4G/LTE link. The blackhats with the equipment that can decrypt that have bigger fish to fry than my connections.
For a local Wi-fi connection, I fire up a VPN. This way if someone is listening in, they see my L2TP/PPTP/whatever packets going to and from the VPN, all encrypted, and that's it. They can kill or slow down the connection, but won't be able to use the info for anything.
