A demand draft is a type of check that contains the buyers account number but not their signature. The drawee bank in a demand draft is the branch of a particular bank.
The only way the drawee can get the money is by opening a bank account and then depositing the crossed demand draft into it. The purpose of crossed drafts is to ensure that the money is paid out only into a bank account. So, there is absolutely no way for you to get the money without opening up a bank account. Also, the name in your bank account must match the name on the draft, otherwise the draft will not be encashed.

A cheque is drawn by an account holder of a bank, whereas a draft is drawn by one branch of a bank on another branch of the same bank. 3. In a cheque, the drawer and the drawee are different persons. But in a draft both the drawer and the drawee are the same bank. 4. A Cheque can be dishonored for want of sufficient balance in the account. Whereas a draft cannot be dishonored. Hence there is certainty of the payment in the case of a demand draft. 5. Payment of a cheque can be stopped by the drawer of the cheque, whereas, the payment of a draft cannot be stopped. 6.

A Demand Draft is a cheque that contains an order of one branch of a bank ( Drawer branch ) directing another branch of the same bank ( Drawee branch ) to pay on demand a certain sum of money to a specified beneficiary ( Payee ) . It is an Account payee instrument, meaning it can only be credited to the account of the payee and cannot be encashed over the counter by the payee.A Demand Draft is a much safer and certain method of payment than cheques, since in the case of cheques, an individual is the drawer and hence the cheque can be dishonoured by the drawee bank due to insufficiency of funds in the drawer's account. But since in the case of a DD, the drawer is a bank, payment is certain and it cannot be dishonoured.
the bank from which the demand draft has been made
Contact the bank branch where you deposited the demand draft and explain them the situation. They might require a request in writing to investigate into the matter. The demand draft may not have been paid if:the drawee (the person who issued the DD) had cancelled the draftThere is a mismatch between the DD payee name (the person to whom the draft is entitled to be paid) and your name as per the bank recordsThere could be overwriting in the draftIf you are the legitimate person to whom the DD is to be paid, after receiving the request, the bank would take the necessary steps to get the payment due to you from the bank that issued the Draft.
The demand draft is another name for a tele-check. The demand draft number through a Syndicate bank draft is usually found at the bottom of the check.
