I requested a payment from StockXpert and it took 11 days to get a payment notification saying they had sent a check. It's been another 11 days and still no check. Doesn't seem like it should take this long for a check to go from Hungary to the US. Only takes 4 days for a letter to make it to Germany.

For those who have requested checks before, how long did it take to receive it?

Hmmm.... we're up to 20 days now and still no check and no response to my email inquiries. 

why aren't you using paypal

Just had my one month anniversary. 

I have to exchange the $$ to norwegian Kr.  and the exchange rate is pretty crummy.  however cashing a cheque isn't free either.  There is also things that can be boughten with american $$ and paypal, so not all the funds end up being exchanged to norwegian kr.

Just to add closure to this... I did receive the payment via check though not without some irregularities. The check I received didn't come from Hungary, it came from the East Coast of the US from the parent company Jupiter Images. The envelope was postmarked more than a month after they said it was sent. The postmark was also after I had told them to consider the check lost, cancel it, and issue a new one which they said they would.

Still uneasy about the situation I contacted them to make sure this was the new check because I didn't want any charges from my bank for attempting to deposit a canceled check. They told me they didn't cancel the check, as they agreed to, and this was the original check.

So, on the up side I have the check. On the down side, It took over 2 months to get, they didn't tell the truth about when it was sent, they didn't tell the truth about canceling/reissuing, and they answered less than half of my attempts to contact them.

when the cheque comes from out of country it isn't free.
