That's a lousy policy. I'm amazed they can enforce that. For years, my bank's address was in Bethlehem, PA even though I lived in southern NJ. There was a branch right down the street from my house, but the main office was in Bethlehem so that's what it said on the checks. By that policy, even though my bank was local, they wouldn't have accepted the checks. Makes no sense at all. I can understand not accepting checks from non-local users but refusing to accept checks from local residents because of where their bank is located is ridiculous.
