Can someone please tell me what payments still come via check in the regular mail?

Refunds are issued in form of paper check in many cases.

Refunds of any kind, mortgage, lease, rent, etc

Yeah, there have been times i would've preferred direct deposit but it's been via mail

Our premium member dividend checks still come in the mail.

Saw a stat yesterday that around 500,000 social security recipients still receive a paper check.

Lots of people still opt to receive a paper check from the IRS. No idea on the numbers on that.

Alabama tried to do away with paper checks for tax refunds a few years ago and had to change course because of the public outcry.

You plottin’ a caper?

Refunds from what? Tax refunds can be direct deposited. Show me a mortgage company these days that doesn't have an online payment option. Leases aren't a payment and rents are what you would pay under a lease, so to the extend you are separating those out as 2 distinct things, they're not. And most landlords provide for online payments or ACH payments, especially in the commercial arena.

Government assistance, social security, tax refunds, etc. Can't all of these be done by direct deposit?

If you would get a job instead of living off the taxpayers, you could get a direct deposit.

My family run a service business and receive checks through the mail for payment and we mail checks to suppliers and sub contractors, etc. daily.

Our accounting department is so damn antiquated that they still cut checks daily for damn near everything, contractors/service providers/suppliers AND would rather receive rent payments, etc. via paper check than take the damn time to set the up a recurring ACH.

That's what happens when the staffers have been in their positions for +20 yrs, they resist change and act like asses when you try to progress and evolve to a more efficient system.
