Cheque Guarantee Card Question
Neato
Posts: 414 Forumite
Hi,
Not sure if this is in the write area, feel free to move it if not.
Today I paid for some school photos with a cheque, the company required a cheque guarantee card.
I have two debit cards that look very similar but one is for a savings account. I get the feeling I have wrote the wrong card number on the back of the cheque.
What will happen to it? I have enough funds in the bank anyway, so will the cheque just be cashed fine or will it be declined if the number on the back is incorrect?
Thanks,
Neato

If there are sufficient funds available, the cheque will just get paid.0

The company will need to change the way they do business - cheque guarantee cards will be phased out by next year.0

It is them not you who should be writing the number on the back of the cheque. Otherwise the rules of the scheme are not being complied with.0

I imagine they'll probably just stop taking cheques tbh, but I don't really mind as long as I am not walking away with these photos having not paid properly.It is them not you who should be writing the number on the back of the cheque. Otherwise the rules of the scheme are not being complied with.
Oh, well then I guess it would be their mistake. The guy was pretty harassed. As long as they get the money I don't mind.Overdraft: PAID
