I have no idea how to cash it has I live overseas. should I pay to phone an expensive help line? no. Send it in the post with my signature on the back and all my account details? no. I'm not travelling to England. So I dump it? I could really do with 15 pound. So I do nothing. Me and how many more. What a rip off. There is a reason to keep cheques alive.
