Nearly 2 months after requesting a check payout I finally got it last week.

Yes this happened to me 10 years ago or so....Never ask for a check. It will take lots of time. Not only did it take a couple of months for me to get check, but worse because Canstock is based in Canada my bank charged me 200 bucks to cash check as I am in USA.... Always do PayPal or some form like that....

Wow, your bank charged you $200 to cash a Canadian check!? Maybe you should look for another bank. I'm in Canada so I didn't get charged but I also receive checks from the US and my bank doesn't take anything to cash them.

I've had a fee and a hold but never that big of a fee. The answer back then was deposit the check into an account and wait, then they charged me much less.
But your post makes me thing of something else. If you were paid in Canadian Dollars, every dollar is only worth 78c US. Without knowing how much, there could be part of what they took, because of exchange rates and fees on top of that.
Example, $500 CAN would be $390 US and then fees and exchange fees.
Wow, paid by check sounds like it's really bad. I got my DACS one year, they don't use Paypal, so it's only available by bank transfer. Rounded, I got $45 and $15 went to bank fees. Banks sure do OK when they are taking fees, and all of this is supposed to be electronic?

Canstockphoto pays in US currency. There's a saying, if you don't ask you don't get. Sometimes you can get banks to waive their fees, especially if you've been with them for years. Telling them that you'll take your business elsewhere won't hurt either.
