Most tech's tell me that they receive about 1 bounced check every 10 =
years. That's not bad. My experience is about the same although I have =
received them for other things. =20
The question is, do you want to win the battle or the war?
=20
Personally, I prefer to win the war. My wife and I would rather =
keep peace and have a repeat customer. We usually call the bank every =
day and see when there is enough money to cover the check. When there =
is, we will then go to the bank and get a cashier's check for it. We =
won't call the customer unless we cannot resolve it on our own within =
about 3 weeks. I've never had a bounced check that I couldn't collect =
on. =20

On a side note: About 6 months ago, I ordered a mail order product =
that cost $225. The company sent two of them. I used my debit card. =
My house payment cleared the bank and so did the 2 products they sent, =
but the dozen other little checks for $20 each (like my water bill) =
bounced. Their little oversight cost me $600. Of course it is an out =
of state company so there's no way to collect. The company was =
absolutely NASTY to me about it. (Telling me and my wife how stupid we =
were to order 2 when we only wanted 1). 4 months later the corporate =
headquarters finally gave me about $200 in products (that cost them $20) =
to keep peace but I won't go there again. =20
To make a long story short, I finally recovered. I appreciated the =
businesses who worked with me. Many businesses didn't charge a bounce =
fee, they apologized for calling me and expressed thanks for my doing =
business there. Well, guess where I still shop?
