    Depositing a foreign check ????
    Interesting situation that I'm trying to figure out right now. Just received my first payout for a dime from a first fidelity sportsbook. Was expecting to get a Canadian check of some kind, but it's looks like a company check from xxxxxx. The top part is showing a xxxxx address while the bottom part near the memo shows a xxxx xxx Bank address. So this is obviously not the standard cashier check I'm use to and comfortable with cashing.

    So will my BOA ask any questions when depositing this thing, and if so, what good reason should I make up, why would a foreign country be writing me a $1,000 dollar check.

          Had one from a poker site like that before. Seemed like it was from xxxxx but on a xxx xxx bank. Had no problems at all with it.

              What books are you referring to, that you cashed those check from? I'm 100% certain it's legit, I'm just wondering what to tell the bank Teller if they ask any questions.

                  Never had a bank ever ask who a check is from. They could care less.

                      They won't ask questions... They will cash it if you have enough funds in your account that they feel comfortable they can get the money back if it does bounce....

                      If you don't have a lot of money in the account, they might just make you deposit it and there will be hold on it.

                      No biggy either way, they don't give a shit at the bank.... I worked there.

                          Yeah just did a deposit earlier. Hot looking BOA bank teller babe jokingly asked why are my checks always being put on hold, since I deposit several different one's within 4 weeks, all which took several days to clear.

                                  It means I removed the banking info BetPlom, because that type of stuff is not permitted on the forum.
