    Default International check in the mail - envelope issues.

    Hi ,

    I got my first check from MFC. It took a very long time to come. But no charges .

    One thing I'm worried about and I have a question for you all, in the clear envelope at the top is saying:

    If undeliverable, return to:
    Customer Service Department - MFCXY
    PO Box 48750 - x Burrard Street
    Then the full address.


    Do you think I'm being paranoid but my postman could be nosy and look that up, or am I worrying over nothing because it actually looks like some kind of code not a company?

    I wasn't expecting that to be on the outside of the envelope.

    I didn't want to do any of the other options because of the charges, but I'm a bit concerned about this now.

    I would guess he delivers quite a lot of them so maybe he knows? I wouldn't be all that keen on that either to be honest but I'm not sure if I would rather pay a lot of fees instead either. AW appears on your bank statement which is a pain but I guess that's just what happens isn't it?

    Thank horny, I know it probably sounds silly but it has unsettled me quite a lot. Mainly because of where I live.

    I almost chose the direct bank payment in the end but the conversion rate is really bad for my bank and they add a lot of % (for converting the currency) on top above the market rate so I hadn't wanted to do that really, but I think I'd rather do that and feel safe.

    I don't care any more about it being listed in my bank account. Mainly because I think it's totally traceable anyway, no matter which method it goes in there, and taxes.

    Thanks for making me feel less silly.

    I live in the middle of nowhere on a farm so I know just what you mean. I am sure people wonder what I do but I definitely don't want it to be general knowledge. I wonder how many of us are quite close to each other!

    Hi

    Even if the postman did look it up, he wouldn't be able to do anything with his new found info on you. He'd get into huge shit if he did, try not to worry about it. At most, you may find yourself with a new fan! : )

    Yea a fan who knows where I live though and comes to my home every day...
    I have enough trouble with guys in the room trying to find out where I live
    I'm switching it to the bank transfer thing because the worry isn't worth the fees.
    I know I may be being over the top but it just doesn't sit well with me at the moment.
