     @kaia Erm, hopefully that's not your own because AFAIK those have something like the IBAN on them.

     @kaia If the account on the check belongs to you, you can fill out the cheque and give it to someone who can then go to the bank and withdraw the stated amount.

     @jakob @kaia They are hardly used anymore, but at least in Germany they can still be used and are regulated by the “Scheckgesetz” gesetze-im-internet.de/scheckg…

     But cheques are easy to understand.

     The owner of a cheque can go to the bank, written on the cheque, and can get the written amount of money from the account eritten on the cheque.

     It is as valuable as money.

     If you receive a cheque, you can pay with it.
     Or you go to the bank and change it to money.

     If you write a cheque, you can write a fantastillion euros or dollars on it... you do not have to have the money on your bankaccount... the other one must trust you...

     But if someone come and want the money... you have to pay. If you're able to pay or not... and every single cheque will come back...

     And i think, cheques are not allowed anymore.

     @kaia In "Betrag in Buchstaben", write "Zehn Tausend Euro",
     in "Währung", write "€", in "Betrag", write "10000", in "an", write "Bartholin", in "Ort", write "Brotka.st", in Datum, write "22/08/2024", in "Unterschrift" you sign.
     
     Then you give the cheque to me.

     It's was a little more anonymous that way.
     All the bank knew is to take X amount from an account and give it to the person who brought the cheque.
