  • Have you heard of internet banking ? Cash ? Cheques ? Running around ? Nah.

    "At what point in my post did I blame the cashier?" In the title when you called her smug.

    Come on, give OP a break. Not her fault REALLY. ONLY her hubby and the cashier.
    Why should she count the money?!

    Indeed, the world around us is to blame for everything that goes wrong.

    Would the bank really bounce the cheque for £5?

    I think what I really meant was do you sail so close to edge that £5 less is going to cause such a problem.

    If you know one that wouldn't don't keep it to yourself there's millions of people out there would switch accounts to them.

    I recently wrote a cheque which took me significantly over my o/d limit (£800 over). A&L honoured the cheque, for which I was very glad! They charged me £38 for the priviledge of course, but better than the embarrassment of a bounced cheque.

    [Please note I am not recommending A&L to anyone by the way - the reason I went over my limit was because their rubbish online banking has locked me out of my account for more than 3 months now, and their telephone banking advisor wrongly told me that there were sufficent funds in the account to pay the cheque. I am switching my account to Barclays as a result of this debacle. But still, I am glad they paid rather than bounced the cheque...]
