    Is my understanding of cheques correct, when I say

    That if I make a cheque out to "cash" it can be transferred for money in any bank branch straight away?

    I don't think so. The last cheque I had for "cash" I had to lodge first. Bank said it was a security precaution.

    If you make it out to cash it can be cashed at the bank it was drawn upon (i.e. address on the cheque in the top right corner).

    it can only be exchanged for cash in the exact branch of the bank that appears on the top of the cheque, for example Bank of Ireland, 50 Example Street, Donegal

    and even then, only if it is not ceossed with "a/c payee only", as that means it must go into the account of the payee

    things used to be more lax, and perhaps if you are "known" in a branch they will cash it, but in general the above is the case
