ring your bank and tell them that the cheque has been stolen in the post, Or ask them who the account holder and the location of the deposit

Report the item to ebay as not received.... file a report square trade get involved and can give a strike against him or ban him from selling..... Also get all details of chq and say it was cashed on whatever date for whatever Ł's and was made payable to..... that should work!

Never buy a mobile off ebay is a good place to start As said above tell your bank the money has gone missing.

Been to the bank today and they confirmed the cheque was cashed on the 25th
They have requested said cheque back and then they want me to confirm if its ben defaced in anyway
they will also tell me what bank and place it was cashed when they get it back which could take 3 weeks
So what do i do now ?
This chap is adamant he hasnt cashed it

wait for the cheque to be returned first, then if it has been proven to be defaced, you will be entitled to your money back.

if it hasn't been defaced, and the bank provides you with his name on the cashing account, report him to ebay under the usual system, then if that comes up with no joy, report him to the police for obtaining monies by deception/fraud

It is FRAUD and your bank will deal with it in a serious matter even if its only 25 pounds.


Good luck

Don't discuss it with the seller, put in the ebay claim, stop messing about - just do it
The more time this chap has to sort it out, the lesser chace of seeing th emoney or the mobile??

You can choose the option in my ebay and click the downarrow next to the product, lots of options
