Paddy thinking they will get a normal cheque when it's actually a bank transfer from Bob Potter, there :D


If that’s the case why the worry about waiting for cheques to clear then if the BDO aren’t directly transferring
money??
Because the transfer isn't done until X days after the event. "Waiting for the cheque to be cashed" is a figure of speech.


Dunno what X is, in this instance. Paul may know as it's in the contract, I do know it's longer than it has been in the past though.


But what you’re saying is Potter could transfer the money tomorrow morning if he wanted??
Now if he did that would be hilarious !

Sadly as a sponsor it probably goes via BDO bank first :(

Does anyone have any concrete evidence or are we all guessing once again?

Fair enough but a bit odd as you would not to be any doubts about it being a commercial arrangement to get it tax deductible.

Still pretty amateurish though..not difficult to have the correct date on display if you insist on these big show cheques
What so you would rather they cut down another tree? If you were American you would of voted for Donald Trump that's for sure.
If he was an American he wouldn't have watched the darts. :usa

I know but it does get tiring when there's pages of debate being created by people with little or no actually access to fact, a bit similar to when you got into a long debate with Tim about contract disputes, pages of garbage and no ones none the wiser.

About whether the payments come from the BDO and if they are paid by actual physical cheque or by bank transfer.

No. It's a large cheque for presentation purposes.
All cheques have a coding on them.
