GBP Cheque for £1.76 - Should I just frame it?

homer911 · 2008-05-21 18:50:52

I've just received a GBP cheque for £1.76 marked A/C Payee Only. Is it going to cost me more in bank charges than its worth? Should I just frame it?/wipe my bum with it?/burn it?

I'd go to your bank and ask them to lodge it and waive the fee's.

Using it for emergency toilet paper could also prove useful

Free banking is for day to day stuff. This is not considered day to day and would involve a charge.

I am with Ulster Bank and have lodged a few small sterling cheques in the past - they just give me the current exchange rate and no other fees are charged. (Haven't done it for about a year now though)
