There are several common errors that people make when writing us a check. Please follow this procedure whenever taking a check at Free Geek:
- Is is made out to Free Geek? (It should be)
- Does it have a date on it? (It should be today's date.)
- (People make a lot of mistakes, especially at the beginning of a new year.)
- Is the amount correct (check both the numbers and the written out version).
- Check the person's ID. (Check the name. Are they who they say they are? Write the ODL number or whatever on the check.)
- Record the receipt number:
- If you're at the Front Desk write FD on all checks. Add the number of the invoice or receipt if you have one.
- If you're in the Thrift Store write TS on all checks. Add the number of the sales receipt if you have one.
- If you don't have a receipt, write FD or TS anyway.
- Endorse the check. (Both the front desk and the thrift store have an endorsement stamp.)
