Deluxe Checks: Just not safe to order!!
Did you know that when you order checks from Deluxe or one of their subsidaries, that they send personal information to Chexsystems and to Deluxe's collection agencies? They send your acount number, address, phone number, and more. Do not order checks through Deluxe, Current Checks, Designer Checks, or Checks Unlimited. They also send information to other companies such as Debit Bureau, EFunds, and
SCAN. Just always make sure that it isn't owned by Chex. They also keep information on file such as your account number, check numbers etc. Be Careful is all I am saying because there have been people who ordered checks and then chexsystems contacts thier bank realizing they have an account to let them know they are on chexsystems. Some situations where accounts were closed just from ordering checks. Suggestions: Style Checks , Walmart, Identity Checkworks, Checks in the Mail, the check gallery, promise checks checks in the mail, Costco Checks, Bradford Exchange __________________

deluxe checks
Wow, I never fathomed that. But come to think of it, I ordered my ChexSystems report a while back and there was an area on there titled "History of Checks Ordered. It was blank on my report, but I found it odd.
I wonder if this is how PDLs find out people's new bank account #s??? I had thought a while back about buying check-writing software and print my own checks, but I never did... maybe it's time for me to rethink the issue.

Oh my gosh!! I actually had issues with Deluxe checks on getting my order mixed up. It was down to the wire and we moved to another location in town. Took them weeks to get the order right, I had to call and call, and now to learn this!! Thank you so very much for the warning
Granny you are very smart. I'm going to open up a checking account that offers interest. I will not order checks, only a debit account. I like the idea of having a checking account that adds interest. how much i don't know. figuring that out. i have to have $50 to open it

Oh my..I had no idea.
I think I will always make sure I get my checks from the bank..Maybe they don't have as many cute options, but at least my info is safe! __________________

deluxe checks
mca, thank you. I have ordered from Deluxe, Current, and Checks Unlimited. This may be how my account information was "found". Let me ask you a question. When ordering checks from THE BANK, can I consider myself "safe"? Never again will I order checks from a "company". So are "bank" checks safe?

No,unfortunately the bank checks are not safe unless the bank does not use deluxe checks or an affiliate.
There have been circumstances where a customer who happened to be on chexsystems was able to open an account but after ordering checks, chexsystems took it upon themselves to let the persons bank know that the account should not have been opened because they were reported on chex. This situation has happened more than once. __________________

Thanks for the info! I never would have thought that was possible. No wonder ID theft is so prevalent!
