Found uncashed expired check from Mortgage company that has been reorganized

I recently found an uncashed check in a drawer. It is for $4,000. It is for a refund on a refinance of my home that I still own. It expired 2 years ago in 2007. It is from a mortgage company that has been reorganized (Ameritech). How can I get the Mortgage company or bank to honor it. Please tell me that I am not the only person who has tucked unopened mail in a drawer and forgotten about it.

Hi! Sonni6335, welcome to AMHD

Call Ameritech, and talk to someone in the records department explain the situation, and they should be able to cut you a new check.

I had one with prudential that was 4years old, and they honored it.

Just make sure you talk to a financial officer.
