I just recieved checks I ordered yesterday. I almost didn't check them, because in the 40-50 years I've used checks I've never found an error, right???? But the IMPORTANT! CHECK YOUR CHECKS! caught my eye and I reluctantly went to look at them.

You guessed it. BIG error.

In large letters was the name of my bank, spelled WELLS F A R T O.

I fear that is going to be hard to esplain when those checks get back to the bank by the person who is in charge of printing.

Not returning them. Marking them void, crossing out the number and using them for notepaper for my favorite friends. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I love all your remarks...nearly went down on the someone forclosed on....

That's WAY better than the one mistake I found. Mine they just used the last 4 digits of my phone number for the zip code. I did get free reprinted checks and I'm about to use up the ones with the wrong zip code.
