My fiance in Baltimore is searching for bank in order to cash a UK check (>100.000 UK pounds). He is a resident alien, but does not have a bank account. Is there any way he can get it cashed?
Your finance might try contacting a U.S. branch of a UK-based bank. One that is not too far from Baltimore is the Wilmington, Delaware office of HSBC Bank, at Market and 12th. He'd be wise to contact the bank by telephone to describe his situation before making the trip there. Their phone number is 1-800-975-4722. If HSBC cannot help him, they might be able to suggest how to proceed. Another option would be to establish a bank account in the U.S., and ask his bank to send the UK check for collection.
