   Maybe not where you bank. If I click the "view payment" button of something   
   I've already paid on my bank's website, it shows me the exact check that was   
   sent to the billing party. *shrug*   
      
   When you setup a "bill pay" account of a billing party, if they're not   
   recognized by the bank or in their list of institutions, they will be mailed a   
   check by the due date. If the party is recognized by the bank, it will be   
   digitally/electronically transferred as you say. I guess that list would   
   probably vary at each bank.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
