How To Write A Cheque

Georgia Said:

how to get cheque written without cheque book?

We Answered:

As soon as possible go to the post office for receiving a postal order which may raise a ray of hope.

Jenny Said:

Writing cheque in foreign country how does it work?

We Answered:

Your Canadian bank account can be operated only for local currency transactions. You are not generally authorised to issue cheque in foreign currency. You will have to make an application to the concerned bank's foreign exchange department to release foreign exchange for making payment in Australian dollars.

Ken Said:

how many bad checks can i write before it becomes a criminal offense?

We Answered:

Are you serious? Get a job. The fact that you are asking this question indicates some serious character flaws.

One bad check is a criminal offense. As a former probation officer, I can tell you that in my state you would get a 20 day suspended sentence and probation for two years to run consecutively on each case (each check). You would also pay restitution - the amount of the checks, a $256 fee to the DA's office on each check, fines and court cost on each check.

Thats 70K in restitution, 17920 in DA fees, appx 24,500 in fines and court costs, plus 30 a month in probation fees until you got it all paid off. You would be on probation for 140 years or until you got it paid off. If you messed up and probation was revoked, you would do 1400 days in jail or 3.84 years and still owe the money.

If I wanted to close my bank account how could I write checks?

We Answered:

You can either (1) get a Certified Check from a bank or (2) have someone else write a check and give them the money for it

Betty Said:

How many bad checks does a person have to write to be arrested for fraud? Who makes the complaint? The Bank?

We Answered:

You can go to jail for writing one bad check.
They will send the check to the DA's office and the DA's will add about 115.00 to the amout of the check plus what ever the merchant adds usually between 28-30 dollars.
On top of that the bank will charge her a NSF charge for every overdraft and the bank can sue her.
I was in court with my sister for a claim she filed against someone and there were several people there that had written bad checks. The judge ask them how much money they brought with them. The ones that had enough money to pay them all off plus court cost she put on probation. The ones that didnt have the money she sent straight to jail. There were several people that were in there for the 2nd or 3rd time writing bad checks she sent them straight to jail no matter how much money they had on them the least amount of time was 30 days.
Also if the judge sees you knew you had no money but kept writing checks she/he will send your butt to jail. Because you did it intentionally.

How much will Wal-mart allow you to write checks for. I had my checks stolen and I have had 5 of them to post?

We Answered:

Wal-Mart don't accept checks anymore they void your check and hand it back to you (without letting you know in advance) and then they debit your account (without your permission).
