I'm sitting here with an Postal Money Order (it's a Canada Post one) and according to my bank they cannot cash this stuff... (I'm in sweden)

WTF Should I do??

Whoever sent you that money order should have gotten one from a Canadian bank instead of Canada Post.

Canadian banks have relationships with Sweden banks that would allow you to deposit a money order in a Swedish bank and have the funds immediately.

Ask whoever sent that to you to send you a money order from a Canadian bank, not Canada Post.

Thanks BRISK, I thought it was something like that too... my bank refered me to the postal office, but the postal office couldn't cash it either...

Gotta fix this...

I think the US Postal service used to have money orders that could be cashed outside of the US, but I think they stopped offering those now.
