HSBC and Foreign Cheques

The point is that HSBC are stopping accepting foreign cheques, I am also having difficulty as I receive regular cheques from USA and have no way of opening US bank account but it poses huge difficulty.  Most of the other banks dont accept them either or have limits to the amount they will accept (ie less than £250 ).  I havent tried WISE but their fee structure is not very transparent.  I would love to hear what other solutions there are. thanks

I recently opened a NatWest account and paid in usd cheques without any issues, this works well for me at the moment, but still considering wise longer term.
