Someone mentioned this to me today - first Id heard of it, and I couldnt find any previous topic.

A search of the BBC found this > http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8414341.stm

This seems a very bad idea to me - I may not use cheques often, but I do still use them (like this week for some work on my garden) there is no way I'd have the amount in cash, and why should I (or they) pay 2.5% or whatever in Credit Card fees.

Do we really want to be giving each other our bank account details for direct transfers ?
