Do cheque centres show the payer who the payee is? Please help! :(

Ansaw

I am new to this site.
I can't seem to find anything online which answers my question: do cheque centres show the payer who the payee is? As in, when the payer i.e. me gets my bank statement, will it show the employee's name who I have paid to or will it simply show "cheque centre"?
Many thanks for any advice

Not sure what a cheque centre is but on your bank statement, you will almost certainly only see the cheque number. You need to keep a record of what cheque number has been written for what purpose.

So just what are you talking about with the cheque center?
Loan, pawn brokering or paying a cheque in?

@colsten thank you. Sorry, I forgot to add I am from Scotland so a cheque centre is a place where you can go to immediately receive your money as opposed to going to a bank & waiting 3 working days for your money.

@born_again yes, a pawn brokering service as well as a "cheque centre". Thank you.

The person who issues the cheque (the drawer) will not normally see that the cheque has been cashed through a "cheque centre" unless they ask their bank for the cashed cheque (or a photo of it) which will probably show the cheque centre stamps on the back where the payee (the person who received the cheque) endorsed it over to the cheque centre.

I am trying to foresee any issues which may crop up e.g. say for example my admin employee forgets to record the cheque properly, a different employee goes to the cheque centre to cash the improperly recorded cheque. Since a cheque centre has been used my bank statement will only show the cheque number (correct me if I am wrong). In this instance would I be able to simply call my bank and ask who the cheque was paid out to?

Thanks everyone for your time & knowledge.

If you are cashing a cheque. Why are you using someone like the Cheque center who cream a % off to do something you can do for free at your bank?
Your bank will only know who the payee is, if they have a copy of the cheque. 
Never used a cheque cashing service such as this, so do not know if they pass the cheque to your bank, or simply keep it themselves and just send you a bank payment. Which will not have any payee details.
