Who else has abandoned paper checks?

[DnetMHZ]

Nowadays the only paper check I write is to my landlord. Everything else I pay online.

Car
Car insurance
renters insurance
Credit cards
loan
cell phone
cable
electric
gas


It's great, anybody else going paperless?

 

[Kelvrick]

I basically just use checks to pay my rent

 

[quakefiend420]

i actually never even got paper checks...no point for me

 

[Klandestine]

i am paperless as well, cept for rent of course

 

[Tea Bag]

I am..
As soon as I use up all of my existing ones since they have my previous address on them.

 

[Nithin]

me

 

[Yossarian]

I'm down to one a month too. theoretically I could use online banking to pay my rent but my evil landlord doesn't want to give out her account number.

 

[MetalMat]

Only women use checks, and I hate standing in line behind them :|

 

[PanzerIV]

I am like you and hardly ever use them except at a few local payment centers for two bills I cannot pay online or over the phone yet - water and electricity. I wish they would get with the times and get online.

 

[JustAnAverageGuy]

I barely even know how to write one.

 

[Mr N8]

I use 2 per month. 1 for rent, and one for a CC that only takes check or cash.

 

[rh71]

Even my mortgage is online. My last few checks (spanning last few months) were just for re-paying people money I owed them. All bills are online... saves a ton of stamps. :thumbsup:

 

[spidey07]

can't remember the last time I wrote a check

 

[MrDingleDangle]

i have 3, rent, dep. water and power, and the gas all still have to be checks as far as I know

my g/f gets to pay her rent with her cc...damn its nice,

 

[KC5AV]

i only use my checks for rent and those who don't accept paypal.

the address on my checks is from over 2 years ago... i moved a long time ago, but i haven't finished this batch of checks.

 

[Cable God]

[Jzero]

I still have a few assbackwards service providers (HELLO PECO AN EXELON COMPANY) that for some reason charge extra for phone payments and their online payment system doesn't like me.

Same here. My supply of paper checks will last ONE BEELLLLION years.

Everything is e-Bill here. Saves a lot on stamps and no need to waste any checks. I even transfer money to friends and family through paypal. It's all good.

Why do you need it?
My online bill payment only needs the payee's name, address & phone, and your account number with the payee, if there is one. If they can't set up an electronic funds transfer, they just cut a paper check & mail it. I have one set up like that to pay back some cash I borrowed from my dad.

In any case, I pay daycare with paper checks, since they screwed things up when I tried to do online billpayment to them :roll:, and my water bill (every 3 months), because I hase to send the stub back with the meter reading on it anyway.

 

[Bryophyte]

Most stuff is paid online now. Just a few checks a month. Electric company is a small coop, no electronic payment options, and the cheapest grocery store around here (Winco) only takes cash and checks, no debit or credit card.

 

[PoPPeR]

i got like 500 free checks when I opened my checking account @ wellsfargo 1.5 years ago. I've used exactly one, and that's only because for some reason my debit cards pin # wasn't working that day
