I am with Barclays Bank and have not had this email.
While it is probably applies to all customers, it also may be they allow there (VIP customers (me) to keep paying in checks.
That said, I think most payments I get these days are Paxum and Paypal.
I do get the odd check, so it will be interesting next time I go.
To note I also have a business account with them, so they may treat that differently.
One suspects this may be because of pressure on banks to prevent criminal activities, and may deem non UK checks harder to trace.
In truth I could see UK banks also not accepting payments from Paxum at some point and possibly PayPal.
