    Americans once again making shit more complicated than it needs to be. Most of the world has moved on from cheques to wire transfers, deposits, etc. all done through online banking.

    Every transaction is tracked and accounted for. No need for this bullshit.

      Why is everyone calling them checks? Are we all talking about cheques? I am confused.

      I’m American, and all of this stuff happens automatically and digitally after I set up any new account. I’m not sure how writing a check would be easier.

      Some banks still offer the transitional system I remember where they do it on your behalf, so once you have all your payees, you can go in every month and put in the amounts for each bill, and they mail a check from the bank to each place.

      Because online bank accounts never get hacked, and old demented folks never fall for phishing emails… right?
