   "This service also will eliminate the problems many mail order companies and consumers experience with COD policies," said Ron Dans, vice president of the TeleCheck(R) Checks by Phone(SM) program. "And for customers who either do not have or prefer not to use a credit card, this service gives them an easy alternative method to pay for goods." The TeleCheck(R) Checks by Phone(SM) service utilizes a proprietary SmartAccount(TM) bank-rule database to verify the validity of checking account numbers and formats them according to bank specifications. SmartAccount(TM) corrects more than 95 percent of input errors, a significant problem with non-face-to-face payments. Both check guarantee and TeleCheck verification services are available to merchants. "Consumers and merchants can have confidence in the TeleCheck(R) Checks by Phone(SM) program, knowing that the TeleCheck name stands for quality products and services," said Dans. Dans founded QuickCard Systems, the nation's first checks-accepted-by phone service, in 1985. TeleCheck offers on-line bank number verification, live on-line fraud screening, and Canadian Checks by Phone(SM) transactions (paper transactions only). TeleCheck provides check guarantee and verification, collection services, new account screening and the TeleCheck(R) Electronic Check Acceptance(SM) service (ECASM) to more than 210,000 retail, wholesale, financial institution and other industry clients through a sales and service network with offices in more than 90 cities in the United States. For more than 35 years, merchants and consumers alike have sought assurance with the familiar red-and-white TeleCheck logo, knowing that TeleCheck reduces merchant risk in accepting checks while providing an easy, hassle-free payment option. In 1998, TeleCheck authorized more than $112 billion in checks, representing 2.2 billion transactions. The company also provides check acceptance services in Canada, Puerto Rico, Australia and New Zealand, and employs more than 3,700 people.
