1. How many actual paper checks per month would you say you write on average? (Do NOT include online bill pay services)..

Actual paper checks at least 15 a month, sometimes more.

Quote:

2. What is the split between household bill paying and still using them in stores at point of sale?.

Household billing, ie: phone, power, gym membership, all online.
Point of sale checks... maybe four a month.

Quote:

3. Do you regularly use checks in a way that wouldn't seem to fall under either category in question 2? If so, please share if you're willing..

I write a check every week to the karate teacher,
once a month to the guitar teacher.
Every other week to the afterschool provider,
whenever I need to for school lunch, and whatever I have to pay for at school. (bookfair, pta dues, fundraisers)
At work for other fundraisers, Avon.

4. How many accounts do you write checks against?.

One

1- 1-3 actual paper checks a month.

2- The only POS check I remember writing lately was to CostCo and that's only because they don't take regular credit cards. 80% of my checks are written to bill paying, 10% to doctors and dentist, 10% to something else.

3- Other uses- paying back an individual, paying for services to providers who don't take credit cards.

4- One account. We opened a different account but I'm still getting it tweaked so currently we have one functional and one nonfunctional account.

I do all bill paying and shopping using EFTPOS and Online B-pay, so gave up the chequebook ages ago !

In the rare instance where cash or E-funds won't do, I get a Postal Order from the Post Office.

I wonder of Alex is still using these?

I'm still interested in seeing the answers, and they are very interesting to me.
