Damaged cheques (or "checks" for you Americans)

1) The bank is closed and I don't feel like sitting on hold all night when I call their 1-800 number.
2) I was hoping someone in OOT works for a bank or has had a similar experience and could provide me with the answer. And surprise surprise, someone did.
3) You're a douche.

Ok fine.

I've worked at various banks and seen this many times. Sometimes it goes through, sometimes it doesn't. Why? Depends on the bank.

So to summerize this post again:
Call bank, ask.

Thank you. This more of the kind of information that I was looking for. I'll probably go ahead and try to deposit it, as I'd deposited a slightly less ripped cheque before and they took it. I'm waiting to see what the site has to say before I proceed.

It gets better: I just noticed that my name on the cheque has a typo in it. And they won't cancel the cheque -- I have to mail it back to them first.

Sigh.
