    Although a check doesn't go through electronically, a check has your routing number and bank account number on it. Someone could potentially note those down and try to steal money that way too if they wanted to.

    Boy!, Did I start something when I wrote my opinion in this thread

    I already read the messages posted in this thread, up to this Time and Date and will try to answer what I can remember I read

    Re: the Router Number on Bank Accounts - I talked on the telephone with a business to open an account - the salesperson said the first payment was needed to be paid electronically and they needed the Routing Numbers and Check Number for it.
    I agreed but learned when the checking statement came in the mail I saw the company had raised the amount so I called the Bank and told them not to allow any other electronic entries to the account.
    When the paperwork from the company came in the mail the contract showed My first payment was called the Down payment and the payment schedule was made up for automatic electronic payments.
    So I wrote my thoughts about that to the company and had the electronic payments changed.

    There is Always Something or Someone to keep Me humble.

    It was nice of those previous owners
    to
    donate their Commodore items to You.



    After all, I suddenly got a
    whole (Commodore) computer collection
    for free – and you should know that I
    was never a C64, etc. collector before.
    For decades, my one C64 + 1541 was
    enough for me. However, one person
    isn't too thrilled about this: my wife.
    How is even more 'junk' showing up for
    unboxing now? :D



    I have been given a C=64 system by
    another person that didn't use it
    anymore who knew that I would be
    interested in having it if I need it
    to
    replace mine, if ever.

    Nice

    For some people what we call TREASURES they call junk.

    I am a Ham Radio operator and still have some unused AM transmitters that I won't let go of .
