They said that > was OK; I didn't have to sign it to be obligated to pay it. I always make them put in an ammount. Any ammount is better than a blank entry. They usually complain but always come up with an ammount if you push hard enough. Just keep telling them you won't sign a blank check. Ask them how much their deposit for cash would be. If they come back with a huge ammount, say fine and have them put it down before you sign it. If you think it's too big just remember they could write double that on a blank form AFTER you sign it. Besides covering you against abuse it prevents them from tacking on some add on charge. They would have to alter the ammount.
