Google Wallet takes over app duties, but it looks like Google is quitting P2P payments.

    Are you US based? US banking infrastructure is very far behind. I’m 28 and I’ve never used or seen a cheque. Been using banking apps all my life

      Yes, unfortunately I was born and raised in the chaotic country of the USA.

      I’m almost 42, so I don’t exactly take offense to occasionally being called a boomer. But hell, you’d figure the bank manager should be able to answer why a deposit transaction didn’t go through.

      Banking apps weren’t quite a thing yet then though, as smartphones didn’t quite exist yet. Any online banking done then was on a computer through a web browser.

      Sigh…

        Yeah it’s not your fault at all, it was harsh for the other commenter to call you a boomer but I won’t like I did chuckle. The US is slowly catching up, the bank I use mainly Monzo is now operating there, not with as many features but I highly recommend if you do want to try a more modern bank.
