Credit Card Companies
Save money by not printing and sending out chequebooks with customers' credit-card statements, along with chirpy little notes saying "We thought you might find these useful!". In case you hadn't noticed, over the last couple of years, cheques have become the immigrant paedophiles of the financial world. Most shops would rather let you pay with a handful of tepid faeces than sit and wait as you fart around writing a cheque and filling in the stub, then realising you put the date as 2007. No bastard accepts cheques. Cash Converters might do, but then they also accept Zimbabwean dollars and still-warm car stereos, so it's to be expected. Cheques are shit. Nobody wants cheques. Stop sending them out. We don't find them 'useful'. They're just a massive pain in the arse because it's another thing to shred.

What's this? You'll charge me £3 each time I (or whichever sorting-office agency worker handles my post) use one of your cheques? Jesus Farting Corbett.

partly for Jesus Farting Corbett and partly because I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment. It's the 21st century, for fuck's sake.

more from you please Costas
You have a marvellous turn of phrase and I like your sentiment too.

Not that you probably care about my opinion, mind you...
