Honestly, who uses cheques anymore? I've just today binned my last chequebook (from HSBC), and I think my last cheque (different bank) was written pre-1990.

Enh, a few of us whose utilities -- say, gas or electric -- will only sign you up for repeat auto payments, not one-time on-line payments. I still like to keep me in the loop.

You learn something new every day. Privately, I pay all my bills via ebanking, some as standing order. Professionaly I run my own business, and we make and expect to receive all substantial payments electronically.

So for these accounts, the only option is autopayment or check. Someday... ;-) Yes, this is beginning to slide OT?

Ah, just the tiniest bit :-) /Per Jessen, Zürich
