Discontinuation of checks accepted at NZ Banks

[ratkin]

Have been having this problem with my Amazon cheques. I wrote a few online books, and can only be paid via cheque, only place I have been able to cash them is at ASB by putting them into my foreign currency account.

Sold a few Aussie shares recently, simply because they only give out dividends by cheque. Some like COH pay direct to NZ bank, so kept those. Guess it depends on the share registry.

Can only be a matter of time before cheques dissapear everywhere, then the problem should go away
