Can't cash my stimulus check?

Question

I finally received my stimulus check, and when I went to cash it at Wal-Mart, they said that my check cannot be cash, something to do with Certergy. I called them up and everything, but all they're doing is they keep putting me on hold or give me the run around like they don't know themselves. Has anyone have this same problem, I could really use some help with this issue. Thankx.

Answer 1

Do you have a bank account?  Take it to your bank and they'll cash it.  If you don't have an account, maybe it's time to open one.

Answer 2

That is a check cashing service (private) that companies use.  Take the check to a bank.  You shouldn't have a problem.
