That is what most of us do. Get bank to issue the cheque, you go and pick up the cheque from the bank branch of your choice and keep it with you. Then you hand over the cheque to your CSO at settlement meeting.

EB tend to try to fix everything last minute while installing appliances & seem to try to cover up the problems more than fix them properly. All our paint repairs from PCI weren't done correctly dents just painted over not filled etc, we were told everything would be sweet by SS & honestly don't believe one world of that until you see for yourself. It is different for everybody but our maintenance period to fix problems that were still outstanding from PCI work not done correctly has been a time wasting nightmare & still simple repairs are still pathetic. I won't go into the problems we have had because the list is to long & the rubbish excuses put forward for problems. If I could have waited to move I wouldn't have paid last payment & if I ever build again will be my course of action as it's the only leverage against shabby customer service & each department blaming the other. The sad thing is all our problems are minor & just need a quality tradesman to complete, instead we get useless tradesman that can't communicate, have no idea what there doing to the point we have had one job done 3 times & still not done properly. I have ended up fixing some of the problems myself because the time these tradesman have wasted is costing me more $$ than doing it myself. Painters left repainted doors in my garage as wasn't able to be home following day & they still haven't contacted me (I hung them myself sick of waiting) my garage roof still looks like it has the mumps. They tried another coat of paint which I said wouldn't work & still no follow up on that outcome, you have to chase them on everything & tell them how to do the work pathetic.

Mate it seems you are having lots of issues. I will definitely not pay them unless I am 100% satisfied with the quality. I built with EB back on 2009.
