Guest MMAisgood Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just wondering when it's time to send everything to Lansing is there a best/fastest payment option you guys have noticed? Referring to getting your card the quickest, and just overall smoothness of it. I was going to go with a money order since I don't have a bank account, but would like to know the best option if there is one. Thanks.

phaquetoo Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 cash lol, than your legal 20 days after app recieved! money orders are kinda hard to get copys of them cashed, if you have a friend have them write a personal check so you can get the check cashed copy, if not money order or certified, it dont matter there is no quick way to get your card!

drtarzanmd Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm sure you 've already did the Money Order thing ... But i personally believe the best is a Personal Check ... At least you can get PROFF that the State Cashed your Check ... W/ a money order it's a pain in the Butt ... I 've wrote Checks for others that did'nt have a personal checking accounts .... that way i could give them a Copy of their Cashed Check ... But as long as you sent it out certified , You should Not have any problems .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizerman Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Personal check. Sent certified mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MMAisgood Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Ok, I can probably use a family members account to send a check then. What does it mean to send it certified? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb5355 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 (edited) definitely a personal check sent certified mail. CM is when you pay a few extra bucks for them certify that it has been delivered. you will get a little green card in the mail proving they recieved it.

Guest MMAisgood Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I can't get the check. How can I use a money order and be able to take advantage of the 20days thing? Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djkazoo Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 I started off getting a money order, but read about all the problems in getting proof that it was cashed. So I went with a personal check, figured why not, they already had all the other information on me within the application anyway. I went back to the bank and got the money back from the money order, be sure NOT to write anything in the TO area, and if you do, don't cross it off and make sure to have your back copy as proof that it's a mo you bought. I sent the paperwork in certified, as I got the green card that they received it within 2 days and then found they cashed my check in 4 days and I was able to get proof from my back within a day of that. I have all my paperwork together, and it was all cashed back in mid-November, and I'm still waiting for my card. I hear they are months behind on sending them out and nothing to make it come faster...not even dropping it off in person will get you the card any faster, just eases the mind that they received it. I figure the $3 to send certified was a lot cheaper than a couple of gallons of gas to get me there/back since I'm in Kalamazoo, but if I lived nearby, I certainly would drop off in person too.

master.caregiver Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 well from my personal experience i like western union money orders they have a 1 800 # on the back that u can actuly call for an automated trace that tells you whether or not the money order has been cashed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MMAisgood Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Only person in my family with a bank account won't even write a check for me, they don't want to "get involved" with anything to do with marijuana lol. So where should I purchase a money order from to be able to track it? Could I just go to any bank and get one? Which banks track them? Etc. etc. @master.caregiver Is Western Union a bank? Do I have to have an account with them to buy one? I've bought I think one money order in my life so that's why I'm sounding like I have no clue how the process works, because I don't really.

Sledge Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 personal check for sure, but no matter how you send funds Nothing is going to make them any faster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
