bank cheque deposit

kpmt SG

Hey I would like to ask, If I dropped a check in the deposit box yesterday morning but the check doesnt include my account or contact number, just my full name on it.. will I still get the money or in this case what do I have to do?

ditzy SG

No, you won't get your money, because no one knows where it's suppose to go to.

What if someone else has the same name as you, and he gets the money?

They would shred the cheque and chuck it in the waste bin, otherwise they will send the cheque back to the originating party, which is the one which issued you the cheque, which honestly would take donkey years.

kpmt SG

wouldnt they be able to trace my contact info, account info or anything from just the full name?

ditzy SG

It's easier to send the cheque back to the originator than to match a name to bank records.

What if your full name turns out 5 records? Bank in money to all 5 accounts, or tikam tikam?

M the name SG

Just go and contact the bank that you deposit the cheque and see if they can assist you to retrieve it back

FireIce SG

they will send back to the person who wrote the cheque

usually received within a week from the time u drop it

happened to me last mth

i got my write full name and acct no. and contact no. at the back

so they sent to me after a few days

(cannot clear becos tt person spell my name as Lin Zhilin instead of Lin Zhiling)

i had to screenshot to the cheque issuer to issue me another cheque
