Crossing:
It is a mandatory requirement to include a crossing on all cheques (reading “account payee only”).
Bank Approval Process:
In the case of a new cheque, it is a mandatory requirement for cheque orders to be verified and authorised by the account holders bank.
The Cheque Layout:
As new continuous cheques must be laid out in accordance with the format of the software, please supply a printout of the cheque on plain computer paper. This enables RW Pierce to design the print to match the computer printout. The software/cheque may need to be altered to meet the Banking Industry standards. Where possible, to assist in fraud prevention, the use of a series of boxes for completion in words of the ‘Amount in Words’ is to be discouraged. The preferred option is that the computer prints out the amount in words in one line, if possible, with no spacing between each word.
Please remove all forms of sprocket holes and perforations and separate all vouchers before paying a continuous cheque into a bank.
