You just can’t admit you are wrong can you? Zelle is free, supported by almost every bank in the US - I’m sure you will find one obscure credit union in East MiddleOfNowhere South Dakota who doesn’t support it - and it’s instant


you can't just admit you don't know wtf you are talking about

checks are a valid form of payment. if you receive one you have to be able to deal with it. some checks are too large for deposit via app. as someone else pointed out, zelle has limits that make sending large payments problematic. receiving a single check is much easier.

" supported by almost every bank in the US -" thanks for proving the point though


Yes, I’m sure you can find some obscure bank where it’s not supported, can you find at least 5 and tell me what percentage of people it affects?

I can’t think of one scenario where someone would be willing to take a large paper check in 2025.

You would actually accept a paper check from someone over $10K?

You can't think very hard then?

> You would actually accept a paper check from someone over $10K?

yes. i have and will continue to do so. what, i'm going to say no to receiving money? after depositing that check, only a fraction of it was available the next day, with the remaining becoming available 3 or 4 days later.
