    We still have a couple of fairly large companies that pay us by check. I hate it because our finance office requires that it be deposited immediately and it disrupts my day.

      Which is weird, because since ~2006 all checks are treated the same as debut card transactions after the first check is processed, since both sides nownhave full routing info.
