With all that barcode technology with scanning when being picked up to every transfer center to delivery? Something’s wrong Dano.

So get the bank to cancel the check, and issue a new one - and this time, go pick it up in person, ya lunkhead.

UPS loses packages all the time. The envelope was not stolen, it was lost.

Its pretty clear to me its the BANK - they are sitting on the money, and don’t want to give it back.

Given the documentation mentioned, the carrier UPS is liable.

UPS should be sued for the value of the lost check plus interest and damages.

In the language of the trade, the check is free and astray..... lost.

This situation is beyond stupid but I do hope they figure out how to get their money.

I stopped using Brown they were so bad.

Closed my commercial account and all.

They were losing top priority overnight shipments for me that contained medical diagnostic imaging necessary for critical care treatment decisions.

FEDEX has been wonderful.

Apparently you didn’t read the article. The Bank claims the certified check is the equivalent to cash, and can’t be cancelled.

I don’t believe a bank would get away with this in America. Even the request for indemnity. But who knows what Canada’s laws on this subject are? Wait—they should see a Canadian attorney!

For that much money I would pick the check up myself or have the money wired. But, these sound like very unsophisticated people.

Some effed-up turf battle at the bank. How hard is it to stop a huge check?

They deserve the embarrassment at the bank.
