Banking

I received a check th as t was drawn on a wells fargo check. I do not want to open an account with wells fargo and I do not have a bank top deposit or too. I've been out of work for over a year, and had to fight my job in court to get what was owed to me. In that year my credit had gone down from 700 to 500... all of my credit cards have been closed... ams the bank account I have open has so many fees.

So i took the check I got to wells fargo to cash it. No like I said I do not want to open an account. But the bank claims they can not cash my check! What's the deal? What should I do.

For extra context.... i went to a second back in mid town Manhattan... the manager said he had to order the funds... is this true
