Banking has changed substantially in the past few years. In Canada you cannot even walk into the cheque issuer's bank and obtain cash unless you have a bank account with that bank. Nor can you have the cheque certified unless you have a bank account with that bank. The only way to cash the cheque is through your own bank. This is aimed at preventing cheque kiting and money laundering.Check kiting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Internet banking at Banco Leon only allowed depositing USD into someone else's account if they held an USD account with Banco Leon. You could not transfer USD to a USD account in a different bank. DOP only. I say could not because it may have changed with the merger with BHD but I doubt it. You should be able to walk into any bank with cash and be able to deposit into someone else's account USD or DOP without any problem.
