    Hi Can you please tell me what the policy is on cashing cheques?

    I do not at the moment have a bank account and I was awarded a prize from a local GAA raffle of €180

    They made the cheque out to cash for me, can I pop into their issuing bank and cash the cheque with I.D. ?

    Hi Donkathon,

    Yes, if the cheque is made out to cash and has no crossing, you can go into the issuing branch with photo ID to cash it. This is subject to there being sufficient funds to meet the cheque, it hasn't been stopped, etc. You can find details of opening hours and directions to all our branches here.

    If you have any other queries, please let us know.
    Thanks,
    Graham

    Speaking from personal experience its not quite as straightforward as that, particularly if its a substantial amount. When I tried it a few weeks ago i thought they were auditioning me for a quiz show with the amount of questions.
    And the lady behind the counter made no secret that she wasnt happy handling a cheque made out to 'cash'!
