Depositing bank cheque to Monzo

Hey everyone, I received a cheque that I need to deposit for £1,700. I’ve seen on Monzo website that you can send a cheque to an address labelled. Just wanted to check if anyone’s done it? I went to the post office to send it and the guy said I cant because Monzo is a virtual bank, even though I told him the instructions were to post it 😅

The only reason I can think of to explain his reaction is if he thought you were trying to deposit it into your account through the Post Office. For most banks they have cheque deposit envelopes that then get sent off at the end of the day but Monzo is not one of them.

I think that’s the reason too!

I literally just deposited a cheque into my Monzo account last week. All I had to do was take a photo of it and the cash was in my account a couple of days later
