in 2006, I played a play to earn game on Miniclip and received a cheque in the post

In 2006, Miniclip had a pool and snooker game hosted on their website. You can still see them if you go to the waybackmachine and check the screenshots.

It was created by a third party developer and Miniclip hosted it for them.

On the snooker game, you could have an option where you could play a game to win money.

just to see what would happen, I played a few games with this option enabled.

After the game, I requested the money. I live in the UK, and the company was in the USA.

About 2 months later I got a cheque in the post for 25 cents. Just to see what would happen. I tried to cash it at the bank. It was at Natwest, the major bank in the UK, if anyone would accept it, they would. Ultimately they told me it could not be cashed for technical reasons, and I would have to contact whoever sent it to me to solve the issue.
