I agree that direct deposit is the way to go. one of my checks from Streamate got lost in the mail. They gave me 3 options. 1 was to wait until the check come and it never did. 2 request a reissue of the check of where they would deduct a additional $25.00 from that check. 3 was to wait 45 days to request a reissue of the check without any money being deducted. I went with 3 , lol.
