    Sorry you dont have a chance the bank wont have record of the draft and what makes it worse for you is they also wont have a record that they didnt re-issue you. Best hope is to complain and if you are lucky they will throw money at you rather than go down the fos route but given the timescales I think you are wasting your time fos wont touch it. If you get lucky it will be someone who doesn't get it s timebarred!
    Good luck

    This is wrong - drafts never expire.

    I think though that the OP has their terminology round the wrong way, and it's actually just a cheque drawn on one of the bank's own accounts, which does NOT make it a draft. In which case it expires legally after 6 years and they are best to obtain another one.

    but the OP Is not talking about 'these days' - it was 11 years ago.
    The amount is £200 - IMO this would be a managers cheque drawn on a branch and not a Draft (normally issued for over £10k).

    It's 500 not 200
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....
