I found my cheque book at last.
Its brand new  I never used cheques, ever.
But noticed on it that is has the date '24/08/2006' on the actual cheque.
Is it out of date?

Marc, Your not legally allowed to have them in your possesion, I can dispose of it for you, All i need is for you to sign each cheque where it says signature, nothing else and send to me....address u2u'd.

Well.....Is that date the expiration ? Check the details against the details on your card, if they square up it'll be ok

If in doubt dont use it, for something as important as this LPC thing you really might want to make sure you arent rejected for some stupid thing as a cheque bouncing (plus if it bounces dont the bank charge you a £20 admin fee or something?)

Smooth
If the cheque has expired it probably wont matter if the funds are there, it may well still bounce

My cheque book is dated 30/01/2007. I've only ever used it after that date and every time it has worked. The last time was 07/01/2009.
You'll be fine but no harm in checking with the bank - could get a bankers draft for the Uni

it's only the date you write the cheque that can expire, not allowed to cash a cheque after a certain amount of time
the date the cheque book was issued isn't relevant

Cheques FTL
Online banking or cash FTW, saves paper and postage costs, and money gets transferred quicker!
