re: What to do when you get nsf checks?

Couple of suggestions regarding payment acceptance:
--don't take personal checks from individuals you don't know; tell whoever schedules your calls to tell the customer that you don't take checks & payment must be rendered in debit/credit at the time of repair
--get a Square account (or similar) so you can run the debit or credit card immediately in front of the customers. They are less likely to give you a bum card when you run it immediately in front of them. If it does fail, you can address the situation immediately, in person...asking for another card, alternative form of payment, etc.

ran CC again and it went through this morning.
So now just two owe. Feeling better now.

Hold on to that check so when she disputes the CC charge, you can still get paid.

ETA: I don't know why people shy away from check in business. You have the force of the local sheriff behind you to collect on it.

Check bounces and customer balks at making good on it? Bring it to the sheriff and let them do the collections for you.
