Bank accounts

Do you check your bank account balances daily, weekly or monthly? I try to
check my balances every few days, especially since I still write out checks
To pay my doctor bills.

Daily. My bank also has a feature where you can add expected and recurring events, so I can keep tabs on the future estimated totals about a month ahead. I check that daily as well.

I don't check my bank account every single day, but I do check it regularly. Recently we have activated the security alerts on our accounts so that when a payment goes through, we are sent a text immediately. Many times I will be filling up with gas, and I get a security text before I've filled my tank up.

I check mine when I "get the feeling" I need to do it. Usually, that intuition tells me I may be getting close to a 0 balance through math mistake. :)

Usually, I just reconcile my monthly statement. You really don't need to check it that often if you just keep a register of your own.

It's usually just once or twice a month. I may check it more if I've bought something online and want to see if the purchase went through. Some of them take a little longer to take their payment so I want to check back regularly.

I don't take the time to keep a "register" (I know I should), so I check a few times a week to make sure everything is on track....

What's the point of checking it daily?
