rubber cheques
Funds insufficient drafts
Rubber cheques is the British spelling of rubber checks—checks that bounce back from the bank unpaid, like rubber bouncing off a surface.
The phrase describes checks written against insufficient funds: He'd been passing rubber cheques all over town.
Someone who habitually writes bad checks might be said to have a rubber chequebook.
