Hi all,
I know this may seem like a silly question but here goes!

Just worried about sending cash in the post.
Thankyou! :beer:

If so send a cheque..it costs them more or just about 1pound to cash the cheque in lol. I did it once i owed 1p on my rent so sent a cheque and they never cashed it lolSealed Pot dec 08 - dec 09 so far £27.67, Live off £4k Spent £330.20 GC £1,200 for 2009 Spent £50.78 PaD so far £650.07Debts: L/woods £154.00 C/One PAID O/D £649.90 Next £299.95 O/D PAID Gas £72.60 Electric £155.73 Mum £640.00 Orange £490.320 -

i thought cheques might be better - after all pound coins are quite heavy so it might cost more in postage!Saving for a deposit: £11,000 / £50,000 (22%)0 -
I would send it by cheque because then you know the letter has been received when they cash it. Would be a good idea to make sure you know which cheque number went to which creditor though

def send by cheque, keep a record of the cheque number, and if possible send the cheque by recorded delievery.
also when your bank statement comes check that the cheque has been cashed, better to have a paper trail....(unless its toilet paper)xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -

dont worry - basically say the credit card company wanted a payment of £500.00 and the person couldnt afford it, say they sent £5.00 its classed a token
