The account number is found at the bottom of the check after the routing number.

The rouitng number is 9 digits and found between the transit symbols that look like this |: Basically a vertical line, followed by a colon.

The routing number will look like this |:011000138|:

Next to the routing number, terminated by the ON US symbol that looks like this ' is the account number. The account number could be as few as 5 or as many as 14 digits, but is usually 9 to 12.

If your check looks like this

|:011000138|: 12345 6789 ' then your account number would be 123456789

Often the check number is along the bottom with the routing and account number. You can tell which is the check number because it is also printed at the top right corner of the check. It goes to the left or right of the routing number and account number. For example check number 1234 would look like this:

'1234' |:011000138|: 12345 6789 ' or

|:011000138|: 12345 6789 ' 1234

How do you get a cashiers check for making a large payment?

Go to a bank where you already have a banking relationship. Then ask the teller that you need to get a cashiers check issued. Normally a cashiers check will be preprinted with the 'Payable to' filled in, so you need to know who to make the check out to. They will deduct the amount from your bank account, so you need to have enough money in your account to cover it.

To cash a cashiers check if you have no account and the check is from out of state, you need to go to a business that specializes in cashing checks. You don't need an account there, and it shouldn't matter if a cashier's check is from out of state, since that type of check guarantees the funds.

What is safer a cashiers check or a personal check?

A cashiers check is far safer than a personal check, whether you are the payee or the payor. If you are the payee (the one receiving the check) and receive a personal check that is insufficient, you have very little recourse in obtaining the money owed to you. If you are paid with a cashiers check, it is guaranteed funds, since the bank will only issue the check with available funds (meaning it has to be paid for with cash or purchased at the person's bank, where the bank can verify there are sufficient funds in their account to cover the amount of the check). If you are the payor (the one paying by check), the bank can trace the check for you if the person to whom you were paying loses it or says they never received it. Also, if the check does get lost, it will be far more difficult for someone to forge their signature to it and cash it. Also, a cashiers check does not have as much personal identification on it like a personal check does (address, checking account number, etc.).
