Think thats what i would do in that situation, just to make sure it got credited to the right account of course

No harm trying if thats what theyve wrote to her saying they will accept, and obviously as she offered the larger amount to settle she will still have that as a backup in case they come back saying it was wrong, dont know what would happen if they did that once cashing the cheque for the lower amount tho
I would just keep the rest of the money safe until i had confirmation that the account was cleared
ditto - nothing ventured nothing gained....... tell your mother to wait until you receive confirmation from them before spending the difference thoughsmile --- it makes people wonder what you are up to....
