No, bank are required to report you to the police if you try to cash a check

...

So what is everything done digitally then

wait what?

Yes

why do they have the mechanism if it is illegal to use?

Everything must be digital

That's retarded

welcome to we need some regulation

So what are you supposed to do if you want to buy a car from your buddy

I feel like you're explaining this incorrectly

because that is like having petshops which stock pet food, but call the cops when you try to buy any

surely they would just stop stocking pet food

Is it all checks or just post dated checks

You could risk having a cheque book more than three years old. You can keep them as souvenirs but you are encourage to hand the in for destruction

what?

I just don't get how the instruments have any use

if using them is unlawful

If cheques issued before the law is null and void

I understand banning post dated checks but not them entirely

alright, but at this point if you tried to cash a cheque, they would just tell you "dude that's not been an option for a while"

Paper cheques to clarify

And call the police to be compliant

are people in your country too retarded to track paper transactions?

why don't they just call the authorities

That just sounds like tyranny to me lol

who are tasked with tracking financial transactions

YOU CAN'T USE THIS LEGAL TENDER ANYMORE

I mean, it just seems like a tyranny of mental deficients

what shitty country is this, @4AM_critter 🐉 ?

he may not be at liberty to say

Sure he is

The banks are required to monitor all transaction. They most report to a special economic police agency that is a sub division of the national police force.

Denmark

That's surprising

I've never heard that rule

something's... rotten in the state of Denmark

Is this a new law

sounds like technocratic "cashless society" utopianism.

Because I studied global finance and economics in college and never saw that law when I was going there

We sold the national mail service Royal Danish Mail to the swedes. Everything sent to and from the government, municipalities, agencies, etc, must be through the government digital message system e-boks.dk
