Postal Money Order verification phone# #9696177 03/19/15 Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 938 Likes: 1 Florida TallPine Campfire Regular TallPine Campfire Regular Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 938 Likes: 1 Florida Reading another post it seems like a lot of folks have gotten burned on fake money orders and didn't know about this automated verification system. It works great, takes just a minute or two, and is probably the best way to double check against a fake mo. The number is 1-866-459-7822, its all automated. Just type in a few key numbers off the m.o. and it verifies if it is a good one or not. Below is the USPS website that has some good info on their mo's and mentions the number. https://www.usps.com/shop/money-orders.htm Hope this helps somebody. Tall Last edited by TallPine; 03/19/15.

They said it often results in no resolution. It was only $50 so i wrote it off.

It comes standard with priority mail or is $1.05 for a first class parcel. Some folks have reported that the post office - and UPS and FedEx for that matter - lie about it, but it does offer some proof that the payment or package got to its destination.

They are responsible for every money order they cash, so they give excuses like they don't have enough money in the till, come back never, take it to your bank etc. etc.. USPS money orders and the post office are a damn joke in regards to how they will not help you if there is a problem with fraudulent money orders or problems in shipping.

Get cash, ship items to buyer. Anyone taking one to a Bank to cash it are risking forgery, taking it to the Post office....done deal. Not sure why so many can't figure that out.

I've tried 3-4 times trying to cash a $300-$800 m.o. and they didn't have the cash. Makes sense, they're not a bank. So in these cases you have no choice but to deposit at your bank. BUT....using the verification system gives you some pretty good comfort level that its not a fake.

I went to the closest bigger PO and was able to cash it. I had her call to make sure they had the funds before driving there. I would expect if you asked them to get the $, they would be obligated to cash the money order they, as a company made, if given time to get the cash needed. They get $ every day to cover the smaller daily stuff, She said they could increase it to cover the money order if I could wait a day.

Cashing and accepting personal checks are much easier with today's systems. Generally clear within 24 to 48 hours and the sender does not have to pay a silly fee or wait in line to purchase the money order. I have never denied a personal check from a member nor have I ever not had one clear. Much easier!!

I've seen checks bounce after supposedly clearing the bank. I've also seen Amscott money orders returned NSF after clearing when they were purchased with a forged check. USPS m.o.'s are like bearer bonds...same as cash to the recipient. I like them, cheap and easily verified. YMMV Last edited by TallPine; 04/06/15.

It works great, takes just a minute or two, and is probably the best way to double check against a fake mo. The number is 1-866-459-7822, its all automated. Just type in a few key numbers off the m.o. and it verifies if it is a good one or not. Below is the USPS website that has some good info on their mo's and mentions the number. https://www.usps.com/shop/money-orders.htm Hope this helps somebody. Tall The post office here wouldn't cash a big MO, even though I told them I called the number and verified it. They told me to take it to my bank and cash it there. How's that for great service??? Still nice to have the number so you can check to make sure it isn't fraudulent, before you deposit it into your checking or savings account...

Most counterfeits are just good color copies but don't have the watermark or inter-threaded ribbon. There really aren't any perfect risk-free methods of payment when dealing with strangers over the internet.

I am very rural the Post Office never has the funds on hand to cash even $200 money orders. My local bank puts holds on USPS Money Orders as well as Cashier's Checks. They claim there is just so much forgery. As others have said anymore there is no benefit to requiring more than a plain old personal check. My bank clears most personal checks in 24 hours. If people would spend as much time and energy using technology for good things instead of bad this world would be a better place. I truly believe that computers, especially those connected to the Internet, and specifically social media will be the downfall of our society. These forums are as E-social as I get.

It may clear your bank, but not the issuing bank. Thats where the problem lies. It may show cleared and deposited into your account, you may even be able to withdraw the funds, but a week later when the issuing bank contacts your bank and tells them the check was counterfeit, your bank will take the funds out of your account. Any personal check or bank cashier's check, I wait a minimum of 2 weeks. Taking a personal check to a branch of the bank it was drawn off is not a bad idea, but not all banks will cash checks for non-customers. Other than some post offices "claiming" not to have enough cash, it's still one of the quickest way to ensure you get paid prior to shipping. Last edited by mav007; 03/08/17.

Rather than waiting weeks, the burden of proving their personal check has cleared is placed on the buyer if they want the item ASAP. I tell folks I accept personal checks from that I will ship sooner (than two weeks) when they can tell me what my stamp (endorsement) on the back of their check says. Oftentimes it clears their bank in only a couple of days before THEY (the buyer) can view it online. The only problem is explaining the process to folks who don't know what online banking is. Rather than look online, those folks can call their bank to see if the check was paid, and report to me (as relayed by their teller) what my stamp reads, which tells me it has been paid...Tom Last edited by thomasconnor; 03/18/17.

The buyer issued a personal check from his credit union. I called his credit union to verify that the check had cleared his account and would not give out that information. So he called them and got me on a conference call at the same time and his credit union would only tell him that there were enough funds in the account to cover the check but would not tell him if the check had cleared the account or not. So, I waited another week before shipping the gun to his FFL dealer in hope that the check had cleared his bank, because I had no way of verifying if it actually had or not. So a lesson learned for me.
