Bet that got your attention :lol:

I'm looking for a freebie downloadable image of one of those "fake presentation cheques". You know the thing - like you see on Chirldren in Need and other charity events. The idea is to print it out on A3 paper/card.

I've done a quick google search but found nothing suitable. Can anyone help me please?

TIA

can you not scan a real cheque and blow it up after photo shopping it?

hmmm! not sure you'll find a decent one on the web where you can put your logo on that easily.

presumably its for your company or something to present. If so, you'll have a business banking account manager, speak to them and they can sort it all out for you.

@Anna
Likely that photo will be taken and placed on internet. Don't want my bank account details appearing on the 'net. Was hoping not to have to PhotoChop anything as time is short.

Good idea - will use it as the fall-back position :thumbsup:

@mike_avfc
Presentation is being made by a small social grouping - nothing "corporate" for us to use I'm afraid. Thanks for the suggestion, though

Jabba, we wanted a cheque to give to the hospital I raised money for, my sister in law just went into the local branch of their bank and asked if they could have a presentation cheque and got given one for nothing... have you tried doing that ?

I hadn't realised that it was as simple as that! Thank you :thumbsup:

Yeah, we used to keep them in stock in our branch. Disappointingly, they don't go through the cheque reader machines.

OK - thanks Lou :thumbsup:

Is this (http://www.justgiving.com/llandaffsponsoredpeal) the Just Giving site you went to? What didn't work?

I can't believe how generous people have been.... we were hoping for £1500 or so, but we're over £4000 :-D
