An update about cheques

Most of our readers will know that New Zealand banks have been phasing out cheques, and by August this year, none of the major New Zealand banks will accept or process cheques.

For many people this means some big changes in the way they make and receive payments.

Your bank is best placed to let you know about all the alternatives and can help you transition to the method that works best for you.
At Presbyterian Support Otago, we are also here to help with advice
on alternatives to donating by cheque. Your support remains vital!

Murray makes the move...

For more than 25 years, Murray Moir has supported PSO with regular donations made by posting us a cheque. Wanting to continue to support us, he knew he needed to change his method of donation. “Last time, I filled out the credit card payment details on the donation form and posted it in the envelope provided. It was an easy alternative to sending a cheque, and I received a receipt back straight away”.

Thank you, Murray!
