"Helpful, but the fees can sneak up on you"
OnlineCheckWriter has been useful for sending checks and payments, and overall it does what I need it to do. I just wish I felt a little more confident about the pricing before using it regularly, because some of the fees seem minor at first but start to stand out once you use the service more often.
I’d probably give it 3 stars because it’s definitely a helpful tool, but it doesn’t always feel like the most budget-friendly option for smaller users like me. It would be reassuring if the plans were clearer upfront and maybe better suited for people who aren’t sending a huge number of checks.

"Linking my bank turned into a hassle"
I tried connecting my bank several times, and each time it either failed halfway through or sent me right back to the start screen. It was especially annoying because I’d get to the same little verification step and then have to redo everything. Support replied, but they didn’t really solve the issue, so after a while I just gave up and switched to something else.

"I don’t remember every single detail now..."
I don’t remember every single detail now, but what sticks with me is how annoying the transaction tracking was. A couple of payments didn’t update when I expected them to, so I kept having to check manually to figure out what was happening. Maybe some parts worked fine, but the stressful bits are what I remember most, especially since it involved money. Support didn’t clear things up quickly either, so I probably wouldn’t use it again.

"Support was no help at all"
Had a payment issue and support just kept hitting me with the same copy-paste reply over and over. It dragged on for days and still didn’t get fixed. Super frustrating, not gonna lie. I’m done with it.

"Way too confusing"
Tried Online Check Writer and got lost fast. Menus felt scattered, and even simple stuff took too many clicks to find. Maybe it’s fine for others, but for me it wasn’t quick or easy. I ended up quitting after wasting enough time.

"A bit hit-or-miss with check printing"
It works fine sometimes, and when it does, great. But then I had a few checks print wrong and I was just sitting there thinking, well, there goes more check stock. Support was okay and tried to help, but I’m still a little hesitant to fully trust it now. I keep double-checking everything before printing, which kind of defeats the point of making the process easier.

"My payment was stuck pending for several..."
My payment was stuck pending for several days, that was frustrating. I get that processing can take time, but it feels only fair to give customers a clearer timeline or a faster update when their money is just sitting there
"I was a bit lost using this. There..."
I was a bit lost using this. There are buttons all over the place, and it took me way longer than it should’ve to find simple things. It feels more cluttered than, well... I don’t know, it just wasn’t easy to use.

"I tried to sign up and it felt..."
I tried to sign up and it felt way more complicated than it shouldve been. There were too many steps, the screens were confusing, and I couldnt really tell what I had finished or what still needed to be done. I ended up going in circles for a while and just gave up. Definitely not a great first impression

"The fraud checks seem okay overall..."
The fraud checks seem okay overall. I haven’t had any major issues, but there’s literally nothing that feels especially impressive or different about the security.

"I was just trying to get my..."
I was just trying to get my QuickBooks integration working so I could move on with my day, but the sync kept failing over and over. Support basically told me to reconnect it, which didn’t really help me at all. I ended up spending my entire afternoon dealing with it, i had way better things to do.

"I tried using onlinecheckwriter for my small..."
I tried using onlinecheckwriter for my small business, but I kept running into random problems. Pages would freeze, checks wouldn’t load properly, and sometimes I had to refresh the same thing over and over like… why?? Simple tasks ended up taking way longer than they should have. Maybe it works fine for other people, but for me it just felt unreliable and frustrating

"We tried using this for payments in our..."
We tried using this for payments in our small office, but it just made the whole check process feel more drawn out. There were too many little steps just to get a check out, and constantly jumping between screens got frustrating quickly. I also felt like the issues we ran into weren’t really being heard, which made it even more annoying. Maybe it works well for other teams, but for us it didn’t save any time, so I ended up going back to our old process.

"Frustrating to use on my phone"
I tried using it on my phone, but it kept freezing and lagging. Because of that, it was hard to get anything done without having to wait or restart.

"Support was slow and the terms changed"
I had to wait longer than expected to hear back from support, which was frustrating. What annoyed me even more was that the terms seemed to change along the way, so it felt like I was dealing with a moving target instead of getting a clear answer.

"Payment options are alright, but a bit limited"
It works fine, but I was in a rush and really noticed there weren’t many payment options to choose from. I got it done, but it would be a lot more convenient if they added a few more ways to pay

"I tried using Online Check Writer to..."
I tried using Online Check Writer to mail a check, it was kind of disappointing. I thought it would be straightforward, but it ended up taking much longer than I expected. Also, the tracking was weirdly unclear, so I kept checking back and still not really knowing where things stood.
Support did get back to me, so I’ll give them that, but the replies felt very generic. Like, technically someone answered, but it didn’t really move anything forward. I was still left guessing, and at that point I was already frustrated because the whole point was to make mailing a check easier.
Maybe the site is better for other features, I don’t know, and I can see how it might work fine for someone else. But for mailing a check, my experience just wasn’t great. Slow delivery, vague tracking, and not much real help from support made it a let down for me
