I received a check in the mail today from SP. It was approximately 20% of what they owe me in total. I went to the bank listed on SP's check to cash it and was told that the account number on the check was invalid (it was alpha-numeric instead of just numeric). They found SP's account and did a signature comparison. It matched.
I was sent away without any money. I was advised by the bank manager to deposit the check into my account at another institution and if/when the check was rejected, I could then report this information to their security department for investigation. Huh? It will take nearly two weeks to determine if this check will pass through. Oh, and if it doesn't, I'll receive a small fine for depositing an invalid check.
Anyone else experience this with SP's checks? |
