NWR: Why don't people cash checks?

I went to a wedding a month and a half ago, and the couple still hasn't cashed my check. I know they have it b/c she mentioned it to me 3-4 weeks ago and followed up with "I know, people probably want to kill me." Seriously! It's screwing up my checkbook! I've had the $ all along but just did some online banking and don't. So, I now I need to ask her to please cash it, but not until friday when I get paid.

Sorry--random vent

That drives me INSANE!!! I feel your pain, I went to a wedding in June and it took her 5 weeks to cash my check. And she only went away for 7 days on her honeymoon and I made it out to her husband only, so it's not even like she had to wait for her name change or anything. It's very frustrating.

I am sooooo depositing everything the next day. I'm terrified I'll lose something.

And am I the only bride with credit cards to pay?

Re: NWR: Why don't people cash checks?

We are going to have to wait until we get back from the HM because we are heading to the airport directly from the reception ...unless we find time to hit the bank on the way to the airport.

I can't imagine waiting any longer than you have to!

They don't have to wait for a name change no matter what. They'll take it however it's made out.

This drives me nutty! Almost as nutty as the person who bounced a check to us at our wedding and never said a word to us about it.

My cousin held a check we made out to her son for his communion for over a month.

Now I know why so many people just give cash!
