Re Cheque 002169590

On the Bank Statement just posted you will see cheque number 002169590 for the amount of 924.28 Euro, a copy is attached. This cheque was written Al Portador, this was done for a good reason as I will explain.

This figure of 924.28 Euro is the amount of Suma (rates) charged by the Town Hall in respect of plots under the blanket Mi Sol Escritura. It includes fines for late payment and refers back in many cases to 2004 / 2005 / 2006. The Owners of these plots should pay these amounts to Mi Sol, but many have not done so. The Administrators have indicated that these amounts will be added to the Owners annual bills, both for these amounts and all future amounts. It must be pointed out that all Owners are liable for Suma payments, even those with plots under the Mi Sol Blanket Escritura, and should make their own arrangements to pay it.

Pepe asked me to deal with the payment of this demand for 924.28 Euro, and a cheque was written as mentioned for that amount. Because it was the last day for payment, before more serious action was taken, the money had to be paid into the Suma account in cash.

Unfortunately, only certain Banks are authorised to accept payments on behalf of the Town Hall, Banco Popular is not one of them. I had to cash the cheque at Banco Popular, and take the cash to La Caixa Bank nearby, where the Suma Bill was paid. This is the reason this particular cheque was written Al Portador.
