hi
Do you know if I will have any issues paying in a cheque: My first name has been abreviated.
I'll give you a false name as I don't want to identify myself but same error the N is missing.
Mr Steven Clarke is the name on the bank but the cheque is to Steve Clarke.

It may go in, it may not. It depends how pedantic the person dealing with it is. Only way to find out is to pay it in.1

I have in the past paid in cheques with similar minor variations and never any issues.
But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.

I just know its going to be a huge hassle getting the company to reissue another cheque.0 -
