SELECT SUM(Amount) AS Sales
FROM Bank
WHERE
Class = 'incomecc' AND Class ='incomecheck'


want to total the Amount column when the Class column has incomecc and incomecheck...this does not work

Class = 'incomecc' AND Class ='incomecheck' <-- That will always return false. Perhaps you want to use OR rather than AND? 
SELECT SUM(Amount) AS Sales
FROM Bank
WHERE 
Class = 'incomecc' OR Class ='incomecheck'

That will add up the amounts for the two classes 'incomecc' and 'incomecheck'

SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN Class in ('incomecc','incomecheck') THEN Amount ELSE 0 END)
FROM Bank

Actually, I think there's something else you're grouping on here? If you want Amounts of people who paid by check and cc (not just one or the other),then you'd need something like

SELECT customer, SUM(Amount)
FROM bank
GROUP BY customer
having sum(case when Class = 'incomecc' then Amount else 0 end) > 0
and sum(case when Class = 'incomecheck' then Amount else 0 end) > 0
