New Banking Rules for Cheques Drawn on Canadian Banks

If a cheque is drawn on a Canadian bank US or United States be written in as part of the amount shown in words unless it is pre-printed on the cheque by the bank. The proper location is indicated in red on the example shown here. The cheque will not be accepted by our bank unless US or United States is written in the proper place on the cheque.

Post-dated Cheques

Post-dated cheques are not an appropriate method of payment. Rather than using a post-dated cheque simply wait until you are prepared to write a current-dated cheque and only then hand deliver or mail it to the marina. Post-dated cheques are not always recognized and may be deposited upon receipt, potentially resulting in substantial deposited item returned fees for the marina which will be billed to the client in addition to fees that may be charged directly by the client's bank. We reserve the right to deposit all cheques upon receipt without regard for date written on the cheque.

Western Union Online FX (formerly Custom House)

We recommend Western Union Online FX for safe and reliable low-cost foreign exchange. Actual exchange rates are generally about 1% to 1.5% less favorable than the mid-market rates published by financial web sites and newspapers but much better than most bank and credit card rates. It may take a week or two to set up your account and link it to your bank, and trades can take 10 to 14 days to process, so you must plan ahead to use this service. If you use Western Union Online FX to pay your marina account the funds can be sent to us by Electronic Funds Transfer directly to the marina's bank account (preferred) or by US dollar cheque mailed to us by Western Union. Please contact Andre if you need further information or assistance with setting up Electronic Funds Transfer.
