BigBet - was there a time limit on it? I mention that because I once misplaced a check that had 180 days I think it was on the face, when I finally deposited the thing my bank kicked it back to me. I believe it said stop payment but I can't swear on it, this was many moons ago. The book went ahead and made good on it for me though. If that isn't why then keep us posted, although with books having to get more creative these days in the area of money channels I am not surprised when this stuff happens. They are in and out of certain banking centers a lot quicker at times then they probably want to be.
