One more caveat... some fulfillment companies send cheques that look
like junkmail. It is usually a plain white laser printed postcard.
Usually really flimsy, and it even has the postage and cancellation on
it when you get it. The reverse side IS the cheque. It's easy to
discard or lose this, so be careful to read those junkmail looking
postcards, they may be a cheque.


An old friend received a rebate check made out to her... sort of. They
misspelled her name -- a faint attempt to avoid payment. Being the feisty gal
she is, she endorsed the check, using the misspelled name, and wrote "Pay to
the order of" and filled in her name. Signed and deposited it. It cleared, no
problem.

It would take some serious "hutzpah" in a legal department of some big corp
to challenge that action, IMHO.


And what's the deal with the "6 to 8 weeks" they always suggest to
wait? 6 to 8 months is more like it in reality.
