IF you go online for your banking, do you balance your checkbook by just using the bank print out or do you

Question

write it in a check register too?

Answer 1

I write i t in a check register also. Compare the two, go online every day if you can and make sure that your balance matches what you have in your check registry. Don't always trust the online balance cuz sometimes it takes a while for the bank to update and keep up with what you spent. So if u notice that you have more money in your account online go through your registry and make sure that the online statement has taken out every bill and charge that you have paid for before you get excited and think you have extra money to work with. Also write down everything you spend on card even if its a dollar it will add up later and might be the cause of an overdraft if you're not careful.  

Answer 2

please please please use something else besides bank print outs cause banks make a large part of there money from over drafts and mis calculations so trust its better to keep your own record of what u spend and receive..my teacher..expierence in loseing money from banks.

Answer 3
