I was just the opposite. My employer demanded direct deposit and I had to force my subordinates to sign up!!!!

I got direct deposit instituted at my employer back in 1995... it just made sense because the only time the bank was open late was Friday back then.

Over the years... cancelled checks have saved my more than a few times...

The first time was when my parents were away and my little brother played High School Football and there was an option to by Injury Insurance and I wrote my own check for that...

Brother screws up his knee and needs surgery and Insurance Company said no policy in force... I produce the cancel check and they paid up...

I bet I have every check I have ever written in the last 45 years... they fit in a single file drawer.

Maybe it was reinforced from 20 years of Judge Judy asking for proof... also makes my accounting very simple... everything goes through the checking account.

Only auto pay is my mortgage from my credit union account to my credit union... even that was screwed up for about 6 weeks at first.

Never used a debit card... although I do have dedicated credit cards and vendor accounts for hardware, plumbing, electrical and floor covering...

Currently manage 12 checking accounts in total and some are lifetime free... and I hold them to it.

Those that use auto pay... ever have too much taken out of your account or had a bill not paid?

NO to starting a double thread...

Just went to see if I can delete and it appears that I can't.

Have been getting a lot of double posts...

^^^ That's amazing...

It sure would free up a lot of my time by not having to write checks... save some on postage too!

I carry almost no cash... prefer credit card with the protections and rewards offered.
