I don't quite know how you have reached this figure. My bank charges me 30p to bank a cheque and 65p to pay a cheque. Add another 20-something p for the postage (forgotten the cost of a first-class letter!), the cost comes out at about £1.20, not £20-£30!!! OK, I suppose there is the hassle-factor, but I would rather have this minor inconvenience than to be left with a cheque that is useless because the guests have phoned their bank and stopped the cheque.Fil wrote:I would imagine this gets very expensive as in both cases the 200 will become 170 - 180.
PS, Fil, to use quotes, go to the post you wish to quote, and there should be a "quote" button at the top-right of it. Click on that, and you will have the entire post included at the top of your new text. Just delete the bits you don't want to quote.
