Idiot Americans, checks are obsolete. Get that into your retarded heads! - Page 2 - GoFuckYourself.com

adult-help · 10-06-2010, 05:48 AM

I would not put it in such a extreme words as Emil but checks really are obsolete! We used checks and get paid via checks in the communist times! The moment the first signs of free democracy showed the checks were gone and thankfully so. It is baffling to me that the supposedly the most advanced country in the world is still using this ancient form of payment.(but then again you still dont use metric system).Even more ridiculous is paying with checks - I dont even remember the times when someone paid via check in the store..so can anyone explain why is this??I remember when I was a kid USA was light years ahead of everyone..Now the rest of the world is advancing but you still cling to old "habbits"...what gives? Sometiems I get a feeling that you do it so you can just flip a finger to the world and say "America! Fuck yeah!!!"

About wires etc: I have no idea which bank (issuing or receiving) charges but yes,it usually costs around $50 per wire no matter the amount when I get wire from USA.

However I dont know how you call it but transfers between accounts of different banks in different countries all over EU cost just few euro if even that (might even be free). I think we use BIC or SWIFT code and that's it. The payment is done in matter of hours, maybe one day ...Wires take longer than this from USA to EU. All those non standard ways for transfers make additional cost probably when transferring from USA to EU..or there are some greedy bankers...

Cashing checks fee is different in different banks, some have %, some have fixed fee.I pay around 5€ for any check.

i think i just have to get a US bank account somehow. most mainstream programs will pay by ach/direct deposit anyway.

this month i went from posting pics of bukakke to getting a crash course about international banking systems for some reason.

If they even know what a wire is, they will then tell you that they will charge you 150 SEK (~$20) per transfer, just for RECEIVING a transfer.

Now, there is always a possibility for the sender to opt to pay the receivers costs also. Then those costs are covered in the sender fee and thus not assessed upon the receiving account.

S.E. Asia is not a country but a region. And as such, not the most advanced in the world. They do not have any leading banking system there, and not all countries in the region have banking systems working the same as their neighbour. It might be true for a single country or bank because they already have so much staff they can assign to this since manpower is cheap and they like to get USD currency coming in, it will not apply to an entire region.

It's completely different in the U.S. The others have mentioned why but I will rehash.

Advantages of checks in America:

1. No fees to cash.
2. You can take them to any of your bank accounts (or even Walmart

) to deposit or cash.
3. Banks here typically credit the money within 48 hours.
4. Sponsors typically charge no fees for checks or very low fees.
5. The mail system is typically 99.9% reliable.

Disadvantages of Wires in America (for small to medium amounts)

1. Sponsor typically charges high fees ($10 - $50)
2. Receiving bank typically charges high fees to receive
3. Tends to attract more attention than ACH or checks.
4. Less safeguards.

Actually our ACH (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_Clearing_House) is probably more like the way your wires work over here. Generally there are no fees in using it but not all sponsors offer it. There is also the minor potential disadvantage of not being able to decide which bank account to deposit money on the fly if that matters to you. Our ACH is typically easier to set up as well.

Agent 488 · 10-06-2010, 05:57 AM

there seems to be cheap methods of bank transfers but limited just within countries or regions.

although it seems that you can recieve ach paymets through payoneer so that may be a solution for international webmasters.

http://techcrunch.com/2008/07/09/pay...sh-out-easier/

now the question is why hardly any programs offer ach payments?

Now I know why companies like to send out checks. They dont have to pay out the money! Look what I found here at home:

11 old checks that I haven't cashed because it's a pain in the ass to go to the bank and do it because they never know how to handle the checks because they dont use obsolete payment-methods like USA do. I bet I can find more.

Every big bank in a country has branches connected to big banks all over the world. So there is no other explanation why transfers within EU are free but from USA to EU are crazy expensive. Its just greed. The cost of electronic transfers are almost none. I bet it are the fossils in banking who have the real power in the US who are responsible for not throwing out their old system of checks... because they probably make more money this way. Only explanation.

Funny dat. I hold a Norwegian passporte and a Canadian residency card, got bank accounts in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and Canada and have yet to ever see a free wire. Wires have sending fees and receiving fees. The only way I can see you having "free" wire is if they baked it into your existing monthly/yearly fee structure. You swedish?

btw. Banking in North America is different than you are used to from Scandinavia. Don't try to fight it, you are on the loosing end my friend.

CDSmith · 10-06-2010, 07:20 AM

Not sure why the need to sling names and ridicule over this. People are going to select the payment methods that work for them, what do you care what they do? Kind of an idiotic thread in my view.

In my case I happen to love getting cheques. For larger payments yes I do take wires, and in fact get at least one regular wire payment from at least one of my sponsors... and yes, there is a fee at my end from my bank.

But there is no fee for depositing cheques. I simply set up a USD account at my bank, and deposit sponsor's cheques directly into that account. USD funds into USD account = NO DEPOSIT FEES. At least at all the banks I've been dealing with here. I guess Canadian banks know something foriegn banks don't?

Sorry, cheques are cool in my book. I love checking the mail and finding them. I love how they accumulate on my computer desk, and I love taking them into my bank (which I go to every couple of weeks anyway) and depositing them.

You obviously don't agree, so why not just do your own thing your own way and shaddap about worrying what guys like me do?

Cheers. Love to all. :D

What you are referring to, and what is free, in most European countries, is what Americans know as ACH. There is a payment directive in place in Europe, effective from July 1st 2010, where it stipulates that intra European transfers are to be free and done within a day, in one or two years. Transferring from one account in one bank, to your friends account in the same bank is usually instant or within the hour.

You should really try to get out more, you surely show how ignorant and unknowing you are with your post. Next time, try to read up on things, before just running your mouth.

In the time I was active in adult checks and wires were all that was available and ACH was for US only. Is that still the case?

The last few years I dealt mainly with British companies so I am used to the EU system.

Sorry if this may sound like a dumb question, but if ya want an answer ya gotta ask

wild johnny · 10-06-2010, 08:20 AM

I always do what costs the least amount.

I live in the Us and deposit 5 or more checks each week into my business account for a cost of $0. Monthly fee for my business account is $0.

I can understand in other countries there are different fees, And agree a person should do what is best for them. But I cannot understand why it makes Americans Idiots for doing what is free!

Naughty-Pages · 10-06-2010, 08:49 AM

For me:
checks and ACH = FREE
Wire = 2 charges, one from the sender (passed on to me) and one from my bank...
Kind of a no-brainer on the choice there..

Did the person keep filling out the check wrong and have to re-write 30 of them until they got it right? lol

(I rarely write checks, on average just 2 a month, 1 for rent and 1 for dental insurance because there is no other way to pay... )

Speaking as a person from the USA, I prefer ACH, but the nice thing about accepting checks is they are free and I can deposit them at my ATM plus the money is in my account the same day. (scans each checks account numbers, and as long as I deposit before 4PM, it's in my account by 8PM).

Chezter · 10-06-2010, 09:01 AM

I'm always happy when I find check in my postbox, what I really hate is waiting 20 day until bank loads that money to my account and paying about 5 dollars for every check. Don't mentioning how long it takes to receive the check, once I have received check more than month after it was sent from USA and there was some Malaisian?? mail stamps on it..

Most stores use Telecredit, they insure check payment to stores for like 3% to 5% of the amount. I see people using debit cards now most of the time.

It is free to receive ACH payments in the USA at my bank. To send out ACH is a small fee .30 or so.

Problem is the bank must allow you to be an ACH sender. ACH is a debit/credit transaction. You can take out payments also, e.g., the electric co or your credit cards. (Taking the payment amount due.) So, there is some security risk. One bank I use wanted $40 a month to list what I would allow ($480.00/yr).

I self-insure, I have only one account that I use for ACH receipts and keep a balance of around $500 -$1,500 in it so there are no checking account fees and any risk I have is limited to THAT account's balance.

livepimpin · 10-06-2010, 02:05 PM

There's no standard in banking whatsoever. Regarding EU. Usually wires are NOT free either. Recently vast majority of the banks adhered to SCT (SEPA credit transfer) which takes not more than 3 days and is completeyl free of charge as well as no external fees (what you send out is what the beneficiary recipient is receiving). By 2011 SDD – SEPA Direct Debit will also be available and also SEPA Credit cards (all EMV chip enabled).
Nonetheless, while US is not willing to adopt the IBAN account form (which should be really) it is understandable they will stick to checks. That's because they dont use IBAN accounts, hence payments to U.S. bank accounts from outside the U.S. are prone to errors of routing. Ideally there will be a standard to which all banks worldwide should adhere.

I live in the Us and deposit 5 or more checks each week into my business account for a cost of $0. Monthly fee for my business account is $0. I can understand in other countries there are different fees, And agree a person should do what is best for them. But I cannot understand why it makes Americans Idiots for doing what is free! __________________ Contact.....Johnny[at]wildg[.]com

Don't mentioning how long it takes to receive the check, once I have received check more than month after it was sent from USA and there was some Malaisian?? mail stamps on it..

Step into a bank with those here and theyll look at you like youre some fucking peasant. Every year I go through my huge pile of paper on the desk and find forgotten uncashed checks. These things are an abomination. Burn. __________________ meh

Who would have thunk it would have taking something so trivial as checks to pull a Swede out of neutrality __________________ “If we are to have another contest in the near future of our national existence, I predict that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition and ignorance on the other.” -- Ulysses S.

Recently vast majority of the banks adhered to SCT (SEPA credit transfer) which takes not more than 3 days and is completeyl free of charge as well as no external fees (what you send out is what the beneficiary recipient is receiving). By 2011 SDD – SEPA Direct Debit will also be available and also SEPA Credit cards (all EMV chip enabled). Nonetheless, while US is not willing to adopt the IBAN account form (which should be really) it is understandable they will stick to checks. That's because they dont use IBAN accounts, hence payments to U.S. bank accounts from outside the U.S. are prone to errors of routing. Ideally there will be a standard to which all banks worldwide should adhere. __________________ LivePimpin Webcams Network - Lemme tell you somethin', this pimpin that I got in my blood, it came from a family tree.

You can see the look of dread on the poor girls face when she recognizes me when as lucky ticket 100 and I siddle up with US checks in hand. __________________ "There is no other way to see a thing except to look at it" - fatfoo
