Cash a check without a bank account..?

Posted at: 2015-05-24 
Someone gave me a $50 dollar check. Ive been ignoriing it for a while but im starting to wonder if they can expire or something!

At the moment i dont have a bank account. how and where can i cash this? (Im ok with small fees ect).

They expire in 6 months. You can cash checks at WalMart and many other stores.

Yes, a check expires after 3 months. Most banks won't cash it at that point.

You can try and have a bank cash it for you but you might have to sign the check over to someone you know who HAS an account and have them give you cash. That way they can deposit it to theirs and you have the money without paying a fee.

Checks are generally considered stale dated after 6 months time. You can take it to the issuing bank and they will cash it, you may have to pay a fee You can also take it to a check cashing place and pay a higher fee

Personal checks expire after 90 days. You can go to kroger, walmart or any check cashing place(pay day loan) and get it cashed. They take a percentage of the check.

Hmmm you can at least try but I think you'll need a id
