i think its only the bank that the money goes from charges, not the bank that collects.

by the way, i found barkeys clears usa checks in 2 days or less - but go to the main branches or it can take 5 days. i do not think they charge to pay checks in. natwest used to charge a fortune and could take up to 6 weeks.
