I just cannot sign on checks!


I have this peculiar disorder of having to sign my payment checks twice! As for some odd reason my signature doesnt go well the first time! So I just try signing normally on a rough so the 2nd sign would go well on the check but No! it ll mess up for again! Well this happens to me with 7 out of 10 payments i make including writing a self to myself.. So dont think im a miser Its just wierd with checks never with any other documents or credit card slips or anything else! Am i alone??? Please lemme know what you make out of this!

Haven't heard of anyone having that problem before, but if I was you I'd just stop worrying about it and let the signature be messy! I'd bet my own cheque that the person receiving the payment doesn't care how it looks as long as they get the money!

I hate it when I get interupted or distracted when signing my name. I lose my place and my signature gets messed up.

Try using a non ball point pen type of writing instrument.

I would do that myself, if signing twice would get me twice as much money!

I wouldn't worry about it because the party receiving the check only cares about receiving their payment. And as long as your bank pays it all is happy!!!

Get a stamp made?

Maybe you just get really nervous, I've had cheques returned because the bank said it "didn't look like my signature"... so that always makes me wonder when I write them.

No, you've had checks returned because your hand collapsed mid-signature under the weight of your platinum watches.

I ordered a Czech once, wouldn't sign for her.
She wasn't acceptable,
mail order companions aren't what they used to be.
