uncashable
Void at banks
Uncashable describes a check or financial instrument that cannot be converted to cash—whether because it's expired, improperly filled out, drawn on insufficient funds, or otherwise invalid.
The bank returned the uncashable check.
Figuratively, an uncashable promise or offer is one that can't actually be redeemed: His political IOUs proved uncashable once he left office.
