re: #318 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.

I still write checks on occasion. Not often, mind you, but it’s usually for things like paying my wife’s bowling membership dues, where they don’t take a card and (until recently) it was an odd amount of cash that couldn’t be withdrawn in exact change from an ATM.

I still use my checking account to make my house payment. I like having control over when the bill gets paid, I like having the flexibility to pay extra principal when I can afford to, and I’d just as soon not give my mortgage company direct access to my bank accounts. I also use it for paying the various bills I get from the city for water, sewer and street maintenance. That’s about it.
