Question for all you CHI ladies.  The following situation that I'm describing is something I'm experiencing currently with one of my ATF's and I want to get ALL your thoughts and opinions. Would you ladies every start accepting checks as a form of donation/payment from a regular client that knew your  real name and was a client that didn't even live in Chicago, but came to visit you whenever he was in Chicago. Also, he would give you the check after the appointment/session was over (appointments are usually on the weekends) and he leaves the same day to fly out back to his home state, so you probably couldn't deposit the check until Monday.  Appointments/Seasions are usually every two weeks and are extended which is the reasonin behind writing a check instead of large sums of cash. I won't be specific, but were probably talking about a few grand every few weeks.

Why would you want to do it that way?  Why can't you go to the bank and get cash ?

Why pay by Check? You're just to leave a Trail that someone can find, especially if you're Married. A Check is just too Risky. Pay Cash and you're fine.

NO way I would take the check if I am a provider.  Read between the fine line... ( so you probably couldn't deposit the check until Monday ).... That mean after He fuck you and when you deposit the check on Monday... The check will be bounced.  

I don't even remember last time I saw a check...  Or seen someone write one...  Def would take a cashiers check or money order but not  a personal check... It's too risky...

Gemma972, not even from your ATF Client? That you've seen 15-20+ times, lets say in the past 1.5 years?

Angela, let's forget about "the reason why" I prefer to pay with checks, just for 1 minute. What I would like to know from someone such as yourself, someone who is a reputable, respected girl...would you start accepting checks from an ATF Client, who knows your real name, has seen you 15-20+ times in the past 1.5 years, and is obviously a regular repeat client? And again, the checks are not being cashed in advance, but 1-2 days after the appointment is over. Is this something you would ever be comfortable with

Seriously my 2 ATFS prob don't do checks.. They are very tech savy... one of them advised me to start paying my rent electronically via my bank so i dnt have to hassle with the mail/post office peeps... When they don't have cash freely... They do thing electronically it always works out...... (FYI I only do this for 2 guys who are loyal loyal...)

First of all, I wouldn't let someone know my real name intentionally or utter my identity to someone even if they asked . And guys do wind up asking .  Your answer? No. Once the check is givin , the receivers drivers license and account number are all recorded on microfilm . Outing herself to someone who isn't part of her civie world is dangerous and puts her in a very dangerous situation for identity theft , stalking , and even ratting her out .  

I did this recently from a regular who has seen me for almost 2 years and its been over 2 weeks now that I cant cash the check. I have had excuse after excuse, I have to pay rent, I got arrested cuz my plates were expired, I'll drop by with the cash at such and such time don't cash it.  

I am NOT ashamed to admit that I have a handful of boyfriends (clients) who I trust completely and have accepted checks, credit cards and Chase QuickPay. In fact, some of them know my real name and home address and send birthday gifts. I really don't see what the big deal is and have NEVER had a problem.

Great feedback Tori, I really appreciate your input. I'm definitely one of those kind of trust worthy clients, so I was just wanting to get feedback from both ends of the spectrums. I knew there had to be other girls out there that have had good experience with ATF's they can trust and share their personal info with. ATF clients which providers can build that kind of relationship with and develop that kind of trust with, are on a TOTALLY different level than any other client. I would imagine ALL providers wish they had more of those.  Glad to hear you have a few.  

I have a very select few regulars that I would trust in a situation like this.  

I dont have a dog in this fight.  But, the cancelled check is returned with the endorsement, bank and signature, routing number and account.  ???

Jamie, thanks for the feedback. You actually bring up an interesting scenario, which I never thought about before.  

Didn't seem to affect him too much, since he got reelected.

I prefer not to be involved in any sort of paper trail. Regulars are awesome and much appreciated, but anyone can turn rotten in the blink of an eye.  

I'm not a provider and I don't have any thoughts about it except one. With all the ATM's around that now accept check deposits, it's very possible that your girl could walk across the street after your visit and deposit your check before you got in your car. I don't know why that delay is important to you but I think it's unrealistic.

In my previous post I mentioned quick ATM deposits. I don't know why I didn't think about how I deposit most handwritten checks using my smartphone -- it only takes a minute. The money from that paper check could be in her account before he gets out the front door of her building. I honestly don't understand why anyone would write a check unless he just hadn't thought it through or for some reason wanted to leave a paper trail. For what it's worth.

Erik_S, I'm single in my mid 20's, so therefore I don't get what you mean by leaving a "Paper Trail"? I don't have a wife, I manage my own Finances. My ATF pays taxes.  

If your regulars were really true ATF's (like myself) you would never have to worry about them "turning rotten in the blink of an eye" IMHO

CECE, that's unfortunate, sorry to hear that. I would tell ur former client...."Don't write checks you can't cash"
