One of the other "new innovations" in the banking/billing industry seems to be processing everything as electronic transactions. I have kept my current bank for a reason -- they return my canceled checks to me. That way, if there is a problem in the future (and it's happened several times), I can provide a copy of my canceled check to prove payment. Lately, however, more and more businesses are processing checks as electronic fund transfers and shredding the check.

If I wanted to do electronic transactions, I'd do them. This just seems to open up another opportunity for abuse in the future.

My credit union puts my canceled checks online, front and back. I can print them out anytime. Very handy actually.
