Question

Frank is worried about identity theft. He does not like to give access to his checking account to anyone but the bank. What is the best option for him to pay his bills?
Frank should telephone in his payment to the company.
Frank should pay his bill online.
Frank should set up automatic withdrawals for the company he is paying.
Frank should mail a check to the company.

Answer 1

Mail a check to the company.

Rationale: mailing a check is a one‑time payment and doesn't give the payee ongoing access to your checking account (unlike automatic withdrawals or giving account info by phone/online).
