Today, I hurried into the bank to cash in the $5,000 check my grandparents had given me for college money. I found out that instead of my name, they wrote 'our sweet iddle pumpkinbutt'. I couldn't make eye contact with anyone after. FML

Haha. Now about six thousand people on the Internet will know you as pumpkinbutt ;D

Actually, they can cash the check without their name on it, as long as the writer oif the check endorses it..

Today, you cashed a $5000 dollar check and you think your life is screwed... what.

I suppose they could, if you didn't really want to cash it.

For 5k you could call me a cuntface shiteater and I'd still be happy.

funny, but who would be stupid enough to believe that?

Why are so many of you retarded? Seriously, loads of people have explained that a bank will not cash a cheque unless the name is correct!!! So if this story is at all true the grandparents just gave the OP $0! Nothing!!!

I used to have a different last name than the one on my current account and documents and multiple times have I cashed a check with the previous last name written on it. Therefore, I think all of you people may be mistaken.

Were you perhaps at said bank before your name got changed, because I would have to assume that the keep records, and use them to determine it. They wouldn't let me cash one to "Erin, my niece" because it didn't have my last name on it. The last name on my account (my last name) and the last name of the person who wrote the check are the same, but they insisted that the check was not made out directly to me, and therefore couldn't be deposited. I don't know why he didn't just write my last name, since he went through the trouble of writing 'my niece.'

I wish there could've been one more sentence explaining whether or not 'Our sweet iddle punpkinbutt' was written on the actual name or just in the memo section, and whether or not he was actually able to cash the $5000.

I dunno. people put my nickname on checks and I can still get them deposited. :)
