However, it will be interesting to see how well this idea is accepted by those people who believe in the importance of a hard-copy paper trail, and although I would probably disagree with them in the long run, it’s difficult to argue the fact that when you receive a paper receipt it is possible to review what it says immediately in order to make sure that everything is on the up-and-up. With the “receipt” automatically going on line, you theoretically wouldn’t have that ability with this new system.
Of course, when you purchase something on the internet you obviously receive no paper receipt, but then again, you get to review and print your billing summary right away, therefore avoiding missing possible mistakes that you might be difficult to correct at a later time…..
