Yes. Apparently according to the Treasury department, it is legal for a store not to accept cash at all. Go figure.

Your father is in a coma How do you legally take over his estates bills accounts?

Hopefully he had a signed "power of attorney" on file with his doctor or lawyer. Without an official legal document, the process may be overwhelming, so it's best to consult with a lawyer for legal advice on this matter.


Can a bill that was never received be collectible after 21 months?

Absolutely. Your not really suggesting you think by claiming (or even actually) not receiving mail (for some period) means you wouldn't have responsibility to pay bills, or late fees, etc. are you? While a legal demand for payment generally needs to be shown as being made during legal proceedings to collect the debt,(and as your now aware of the bill you've clearly received that), a bill doesn't really need to be sent or received for you to be responsible for what caused it. Most contracts and agreements even specify that any billing is just a courtesy. You are agreeing to pay when you order/accept the service/materials or whatever. It is your contract obligation. No bill is required.


If a creditor sends your payment back to you do you still owe the debt?

Yes. Once a contract has been defaulted on, the creditor has no legal obligation to accept any payment other than that which was agreed on in the original contract or subsequent agreement.


Do you have to pay a charge off account from 7 years ago?

As a debt collector, I would say, "wouldn't you want to pay your bills?" However, a debt that is 7 years old is generally out of its legal statues, so they could not sue you to collect, nor would it be legal for them to make threats of suing you. If they make that mistake, the could end up having to pay you!

Can stores not take cash for purchases?

I do not believe that it is legal to not accept 'legal tender', that is, US bills and coins, with the exception of the penny. Anything could have changed under the current government, however, and we very well might not even know about it . . . . . .


Can you use US dollars for taxi in Vancouver BC?

American currency is not legal tender in Canada. Many (but not all) taxi drivers will accept American bills at par. You would be wise to convert to Canadian currency. Canadian banks will exchange American bills for Canadian bills at a fair exchange rate, and will do so while you wait. Besides, our bills are prettier than American bills.


How do you know if dollar bills are fake or not?

Fakes, copies, and facsimiles will have "Not Legal Tender" printed on them. Real US bills larger than $2 and dated 1990 or later have plastic security threads running through them, and watermarks where you can see a shadow image when you hold the bills up to light.

Where can you get US two dollar bills?

From any larger bank, and many smaller ones. The bills are still legal tender and have never been discontinued. They're not even scarce because there are hundreds of millions of them. But they ARE uncommon because that large number is only a tiny fraction (< 1%) of the billions of bills with other denominations.


Do businesses accept old bills?

Technically all current-size Federal Reserve Notes, U.S. Notes, and silver certificates are legal tender. However, some businesses may be reluctant to accept older bills because they were much easier to counterfeit.If you have old bills you should also find out if they have any collector value that's higher than their face value. For example, some old $5 silver certificates can sell for $10 or more to a collector, so you wouldn't want to spend one and just get 5 bucks for it.Also, many businesses do an extremely poor job of educating employees about the coins and bills that are currently in circulation. There have been numerous cases, some ending up in court, where clerks refused to accept $2 bills, half dollars, or the new presidential dollar coins as legal money.
