Radical Departure From traditional banking practices   This article doesnt convey the sense that Check  is a radical departure from the way banks have traditionally worked  The cancelled check was a key part of traditional checking  The cancelled check is proof that a drawer has payed pursuant to the terms of the check  Not only do you have proof but you have the original paper and the original signature  This is a right that bank consumers have that has been taken away from them by special interests Check  nullifies attempts of banking consumers to protect themselves from banking fraud  It is no longer possible to inspect the original paper of the check  Experts cannot inspect the original signature or the ink used on the checks  Watermarks are no longer useful nor are special inks microprinting or other security features that were designed to stop check fraud Check  eliminates obligations banks usually had to their customers It is a radical and profound change in our banking system and it introduces lawlessness and chaos into our banking system
