Cheque Cashing FAQs
What if my cheque fails to clear, will you send it back to me?
The cheque can be sent back to you for a charge of £10. The cheque will be sent by recorded delivery to the address registered to your Freedom Card, it is therefore essential that you provide us with your correct contact details.
What happens if funds haven’t appeared on my Freedom card within 10 working days?
This may mean that the cheque hasn’t cleared or hasn’t been received by us.
How much will I be charged if the cheque fails to clear?
If your cheque fails to clear, you will still be charged the relevant fee. Please see the table above.
What if my cheque is lost in the post?
We suggest you post your cheque using a recorded delivery service. We do not take any responsibility for cheques that are lost in the post.
