[Electronics-talk] talking check writers

[Tom Lange]

Here here! I started doing online bill pay with WAMU some time ago, and when 
WAMU became CHASE, I was very pleased to note that CHASE's online banking 
pages were nicely set up and easy to use with JAWS.  There's room for 
improvement, but all in all the service works very well.  I find Bank of 
America's service to be a bit more cumbersome.  So in short, I don't mess 
around with paper checks at all except to go to my local Chase branch to get 
an official cashier's check for my rent.
