keep the change

I recently cancelled my land line. Apparently I over paid my last bill, so AT&T sent me a check for 42 cents. Couldn't they have just credited the debit card account that I used to pay the bill?

Let's see a 39 cent stamp, the check & the envelope let alone the check generator & stuffer be it human, monkey or computer and I think we're well over 42 cents. So what's their motivation?



I wonder how much money AT&T makes annually off of uncashed .42 checks.

I really want to go into the bank and cash just the check. "Four dimes & two pennies, please." Or maybe I'll put half of it in savings and take the rest in cash er, change.
