I have almost committed homicide a number of times at Co-op. One day I present a couple of cheques and the teller flatly refuses to bank them. Reason? They only have two names! "Your account has three names so all the cheques you bank with us must have three names!!" Solution: Go back to the person who made the cheques and tell them to add the third name!!! I'm totally incensed imagining the whole process and time it will take and I ask her "What if I take the cheques, walk out of the bank, add the third name and come back??". She goes like "You could do that and I wouldn't know but don't because I'll check the handwriting bla bla bla...". I had to threaten her and demand to see the manager etc. before she accepted to bank my cheques!!! My own sweat! And here I was begging them to take my money!! Bure kabisa!

I bank with other banks too and they have never given me that third name crap - that's what clearing is all about - talk to the issuer of the cheque - through his bank - in the background. You can guess where my cheques end up nowadays!

I think you guys are blowing issues out of proportion here and sharing personal names and titles here isnt the way to go about it.Why dont you just move to the better option?We have over 30banks in Kenya.
