Here’s why you will be wise not to write cheques without funds in the account
Cheques are a time-honored financial instrument designed to be as good as cash. However, people issuing cheques without having adequate funds have become a huge problem to society. If allowed to continue unabated it could well result in irreparable damage to the economy and to people’s lively hoods.
Therefore, as a part of its mandate, CRIB has initiated strict deterrents to discourage people from engaging in this dishonorable and illegal act. CRIB now includes the details of cheques returned by commercial banks due to insufficient funds in the respective credit reports since January 2010.
