Answer 7

No cheques, last time I used a cheque was when I bought my first house in 1999 and I post dated it as I had a feeling that the developer was going to s***w me around, If he did - I would have cancelled it. It worked - he delivered on his promise for the first time ever. I think that is about the only benefit that you can get from writting cheques - Kind of use it as a carrot dangling in front of the donkeys nose.

Answer 8

Bull I am a bit doff as you know, I keep on typing in the wrong pass word for the internet banking and then everything freezes up.....Then I have to go to the Bank to reset the password. My husband gets so irretated with me. I just cannot remember all the stupid passwords and codes.....so I still write out cheques, a lot of the time.
