Plaintiff’s first question should have been: *”Why don’t you have a bank account”?* followed by: *”Sorry, I can’t help you”.* When grown people don’t have bank accounts, there’s usually a negative reason for it.

This is the exact reason why I don't deposit other people's checks into my account. Furthermore, the plaintiff is mistaken when she said the check had cleared. No, what they did was give you credit for the check in advance. Once they submitted that check to that other person's account, that's when they discovered funds were not available so the initial credit was reversed. As a rule of thumb, it's usually five business days for a check to clear an account.

[@elwin38]

What you said!! I learned the hard way about these checks.

[@misterbee66]

Exactly, which is why I do not even use checks. I would much rather money orders simply because I am very impatient and I want the money to come out of my account immediately, I do not feel like waiting for checks to clear.

[@nettejones8276]

@@misterbee66 we think alike because I even though I have a checking account I always get a cashier's check for my rent every month and I have them put my apartment number and the month that I am paying for in the memo section. I want the money out of my account so that it balances immediately. Another rule of thumb is that if you get money orders, get them at the post office because they can trace them back indefinitely whereas Western Union can only go back 5 years I believe, if not it's 2 years. Last piece of advice, I take a picture of my cashier's check and email it to a folder in my Yahoo account. That way if I lose my rent receipt I have proof that I paid it even if I lose or damage my phone.

For those who don't have a bank account. There are a few things. If you are afraid of the bank, you probably don't go outside at all, afraid of people robbing you. The only people I know without a bank account, owe the Feds, child support, credit card fraud etc. If you travel, you should have a bank account, a lot of places don't take cash and on the plane. Customs may ask you about your stay, and how much money do you have, and prove that it is yours. And if you are carrying too much and don't declare it, they can take it away. So I guess you just stay at home counting your money and go nowhere, but to the bar or club.
