Ask someone in you payroll or HR departments at work. Every place I????????ve ever worked had a local bank set up that will cash the check. I????????m sure your company has an account with a local bank for petty cash and such, which should be able to cash your check.

I know in the state of Illinois they have "currency exchanges" that specifically cash checks for a fee. And there are one or two places like that around here in Indiana. Check your yellow pages. A long time ago I had an issue like that...I signed the check over to my sister...she deposited it in her account...when it cleared she withdrew the money and gave it to me.
Is there any branches of the bank that the check is drawn off of
Is there any branches of the bank that the check is drawn off of in your town?

Why not open a new account with a different bank. Preferably the same one the check is drawn against so there will be no hold on it.

Do you not have a bank account because of Chexsystems, telecheck, etc?
We can help you find a bank account so this is no longer a worry . . . . We have a whole banking forum, which after this post I'm going to move this thread to. MCA (Mary) is awesome at finding people a bank, she can help you!

Thanks for the ideas although none of them worked. Our work does not deal in petty cash. Everything is expensed and then paid once a month via direct deposit. HR had no suggestions and does not have any local bank accounts. The closest local branch my company uses is in New York, i live in Ohio. I tried to open a bank account and cash the check, but they all said it would take at least 5 days before my money is available. Well, thanks anyways.

No luck w/ the Liquor store. Guess i'm gonna have to go to a check cashing place. Seems like they always end up getting my money one way or another.

You know what...even if you open an account and have to wait five days before it's available, that's better than paying a fee to a check cashing place. Do you really need the whole amount of the check before five days? Sometimes, if the bank you open an account at is familiar with the company you work for, they may decide to not hold it. It's up to the branch manager if they are willing to remove the hold. Or you can request that they take a copy of the check and call to see if it's cleared after about 2 days. The first $100 of a deposit is always made available at the time of the deposit, anyway. Just a thought. Anything to keep those check cashing places from taking money!

Also, did you check around to see if any of your local banks are "sisters" with the bank your check is drawn on?

I CAN open a bank account as far as I know, but they are all saying there will be a 5 day hold on my funds. I certainly can't wait 5 days for my money. I have bills that MUST be paid ASAP. Plus i'm totaly broke right now and need gas, food, and well you get the point. Check should arrive tomorrow (i hope) or Monday (more likely).

Well, I got my check and was unable to find anyone to cash it. I went to ACE Cash Advance and was charged $94.64 to cash it!!! Ouch

Why don't you take $10 now and open an account somewhere? That way you won't have to wait in the future. You can just cash the check, not deposit it.

The chain of stores owned by SuperValu (Shaw's & Albertson's among others) will cash one payroll check up to $1,500 per week for a $1 fee. Sounds like your check was for more than that. You should have tried a savings account at credit union. At one point years ago I was denied at a check cashing store :-)
Things aren't that bad for you I hope.
The CO-OP credit union reloadable cards are coming out soon. You'll be able to make deposits in branch, and have free atm access nationwide with no overdrafts and there will be absolutely no criteria for opening the account except identification.
