[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 558958, member: 1211"] I do, but I also haven't written a check in months. I think I do it every 2-3 months. I've never caught a discrepancy, and sometimes it helps me note what I purchased for that amount. I understand the semblance of control by not using autopay etc, but I also don't understand why someone would willingly throw dollars out the window by continuing to send in their payments. I truly don't judge, but it does seem like a waste of money. Peace of mind and control accounts for a lot, so again, I get it. I went paperless with almost everything years ago. They aren't wasting tons of paper, and I appreciate that part of technology. I've been told to keep my check because it can be such a hassle for some people. When that happens, it reminds me how very lazy we have become. Even if all it is is taking a photo of the check with their phone and texting it to their bank account. Speaking of lazy, I just received a new card with "tap" technology. How absurd are we that a swipe was too much to ask, and then a quick insertion was too much to ask, and now all we have to do is tap the card against the screen. [/QUOTE]
