Cheque delivered, how am I suppose to use it?

[Robw1]

Hi, got an unexpected queue from agl with what looks like the remainder of the QLD Gov cost of living payment, not sure why it didnt remain as credit. Also wondering how I'm suppose to use it when my bank no longer processes cheques?

Anyone had a similar experience and or solution?

It might be possible to bank a cheque at Australia Post using Bank@Post,  possibly selected locations, not sure . . . you can apparently deposit any cheque to your account that way, but might need a VISA debit card that uses a PIN.

Pop by your local PO and ask.

Or, I believe you can still go onto a branch of the issuers bank and cash a cheque, you obviously need ID such as DL, and maybe some other form of ID.

Again, you might have to contact their bank main phone number and confirm.

Cheques are certainly on the way out, it's surprising AGL is still using them.

Thanks never knew the post office might be a solution, I'll give it a go.

You received a cheque from AGL for the Queensland Government's cost-of-living payment, likely instead of a credit, and your bank doesn't process cheques. You'll need to find alternative methods to deposit or cash the cheque, such as contacting AGL for a bank transfer or exploring options like a cheque deposit service.
