What can Brown do TO you?...................
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.
Should have wired it from bank top bank.
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.
What would you do with your blog if someone gave you a hundred dollars?
But delivering a $1,000 jigsaw puzzle is a piece of cake for them.

Wow. This is twice in one afternoon they lost that inheritance.
For that much money I would pick the check up myself or have the money wired. But, these sound like very unsophisticated people.
Who in the world would attempt to cash a $846,000 check not made out to them? Heck, I deposited a $21,500 check from my insurance company and the bank wouldn’t release all the funds for a week.
There is another thread about this, with quite a few posts.
Seems like UPS only owed a refund of shipping fees. It is wrong to indicate otherwise, IMHO.
Triple stupidity here -
“Hey just overnight me a million dollar check with no insurance!”
UPS loses the envelope and says it’s not their fault. Which I agree to a certain point.
The bank WROTE the draft and HAS the money (and is getting the interest) and says they candonuffin
He hired UPS to ship the bank draft to a nearby UPS store.
Idiot.
Canadian bank law and practices may be a lot different from those in the USA. But I once faced a similar situation, and I had no trouble getting the issuing bank to initiate a stop-payment order, plus give me a refund.
Smells of lawsuits ...
