A cheque is a specialized form of a bill of exchange which is drawn on a banker and is payable on demand. From the practical viewpoint, it
12、is a payment instruction addressed by a customer to his bank, telling the bank to pay a specified sum of money to the named payee “or order”. l The difference of a open cheque and a crossed cheque: Ø The payee of an open cheque may obtain cash if he presents the cheque personally to the bank on wh
13、ich it is drawn. Ø A crossed cheque can be paid by the bank on which it is drawn only for the credit of an account either at the same branch or at another branch of a bank. l A cheque card and the function of a cheques card: Ø A cheque card is a document issued by a bank which enables the holder
14、 to cash cheques up to a stated maximum amount at any branch of the issuing bank or of certain other banks with whom reciprocal arrangements have been made. Ø The card is useful when making payments to third parties, because it contains an undertaking to the payee of a cheque that the bank will pay
15、 any cheque not exceeding the stated maximum sum, provided that it is drawn by the person named on the card and provided that cheque is drawn before a specified date. l The undertaking of the issuing bank on the cheque card: Ø The cheque must be signed in the presence of the payee. Ø The signatur
16、e on the cheque must correspond with the specimen signature on the card. Ø The cheque must be drawn on a bank cheque form bearing the code number shown on the card. Ø The cheque must be drawn before the expiry date of the card. Ø The card number must be written on the reverse of the cheque. [As
