Has anyone had an organization that had trouble cashing a check? Apparently my chairperson gave the check to the organizations treasurer to apply towards her daughters account. The treasurer was out running errands and decided that since the check was drawn on a Chase Bank, she would just cash the check and apply the money instead of doing it as a check. Well, good thing she did. The bank said the check couldn't be cashed! Apparently HO releases the checks before they record them and release the funds for them! I can only imagine what problems would have occurred had the organization deposited the check and it got rejected instead! Can you imagine the NSF fees? All for a $43 check!!
Anywho. I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I apologized profusely and HO seemed to be pretty helpful to them. Here is an email she sent me today......I about died when she said she called and left a VM on the presidents line!
"Supposedly the check issue is taken care of the A/P supervisor called me this morning and said that it should be all fixed I told her that I will let her know if there is an issue when they try to cash again. She said this is the first time in 8 years that she has been there that they have ever had this happen. I told her that you were working with someone else on a fund-raiser and that I hoped that this was the one and only time this issue happens. She was very nice and told me to call her after the check gets cashed or if there is a problem so they can notify their bank in Chicago of the issue. I told her and the president of the Company that you have been GREAT!!! But I was not sure that I could back pampered chef like I had done in the past especially since all this took place over $40 and not hundreds or thousands. I called and left vmx on the presidents line last night after Cheryl said everything was OK. The A/P super told me that she was working on the issue after that until 8 pm last night. I told them that if Indy had put this into there account and then got it back as NSF due to payment denied I would have been a whole lot more upset I guess I am glad the person was smart enough to go to the bank to cash it instead.
Thanks for all your help once again you’re GREAT!!!
Hope you have a good day!!!
Thanks
