Problems paying in a cheque

My Mum received a small cheque from Santander. The payees are my Dad (deceased), my Mum (executor) and her lawyer as another executor. The estate was wound up a few months ago. My Mum tried paying it in using the ATM at her nearest bank (which is largely self-service) but the machine refused to accept it. Is it likely to be accepted by a cashier or will the cheque have to be reissued by Santander?

    She will need to ask to have it reissued. 

    All posts are my personal opinion, not formal advice Always get proper, professional advice (particularly about anything legal!)
