cheque and postal order clearance

[dworek]

Hi Guys,

I'm based in Europe - does anyone know of a good payment processor for clearing cheques and postal orders?

Thanks in advance,

If your postal order is 'signed' you should be able to deposit it through you bank, along with checks.

If it is unsigned, you should be able to cash it at a post office.

I think the reason he is asking comes back to the same problem as Marcjacobs thread.

If he is in europe the price of depositing a check (cheque) or postal order in USD would most likely remove the point of even paying it in because of charges.

Maybe im wrong, but it is something that would make me ask this question, if it was something i was considering.

The reason I'm asking is that Pacnet have recently decided to stop servicing adult content sites - they used to process cheques/postal orders quickly (without the usual three weeks waiting). Many UK customers still prefer to pay this way so I'm looking for another payment processor that will offer the same service.

Thanks in advance for your help.

3 weeks to clear cheques?

Dude, did you mean 3 days? Thats how long it takes me in the Uk.

Yes - three weeks - I'm not in the UK - I'm in the Netherlands.

We haven't used cheques here since Thatcher was in power!!
