I’ve tried to balance my checkbook, but just can’t get the numbers to add up correctly. What should I do?
If you have Microsoft Excel software, you can use our checking account balance calculator. Instructions are included in the file. If you don’t have Excel, you can download and print a checking account balancing form with the same helpful information (you’ll need Adobe Acrobat Reader). If you still have problems, call Member Services for help.
