How would someone go about checking their balance in their checking account? (without taking money out of an ATM)

Who is your bank? Some banks offer on-line banking.
If your bank offers online service, you first have to register with them and then you'll have access to the information.
You could also do it the old fashion way, call your bank and ask them what your balance is... they'll ask you some questions then they'll give you the balance. Also, you just go to the bank in person and ask. They'll ask you for ID.
Your lack of information regarding this subject is highly supicious. Having previously worked in a bank's fraud prevention department I feel obliged to tell you that everything done on an account is monitored. If you are trying verify someone's balance you could get into some really big problems that will haunt you till the day you die.
I'd probably ask one of my friends if I can borrow $20 and then go deposit it in the ATM.
Right in front of them, for the best comedic effect.
Translation: I've never seen an ATM machine without the "check balance" feature.
Unless, of course, you're using your ATM card in a foreign country... then your options may be limited to withdraw only...
Edit: Web banking. DO IT.
No it's MY account, but I just wanna know how much I have cause I'm really not sure. The bank is Commerce (in the title). And how would you do this on-line banking stuff? It said your username is your SSN and your PIN is your DOB, I tried that but it didn't work, do I actually have to physically go to the bank?
