Do you pay bills online or write a check?

My bank card was hacked and I'm now reconsidering paying anything online.

I called the bank and they are going to reimburse me for the stolen money and send me a statement which I have to and will fill out.

I'm seriously thinking about going back to writing checks.

I'm thinking it's safer.

Dave Ramsey says NEVER give anyone access to your checking account. We write very few checks and try to pay all we can using cash.

I pay all our bills online through our bank.

I will use checks, till they tell me I can't.

Me too.  

I don't go through each individual website.

I don't use my bank card to pay bills, too easy to hack.

My bank offers bill pay, when I log on to get my balance, I can access the bill pay through the bank website.

Never had a problem.

I pay most bills online through my bank account and use a card for the rest. I haven't picked my checkbook up in two years.

My Bank has Bill Pay service...I use that. I have had bills with the check enclosed go missing....I had to pay a stop check fee on both....

The amount of personal info on a check is scary....and if you pay your Macy's bill at Macys...the put your drivers license number on it to boot....
