Legal question regarding PokerStars checks

[Shrike]

My choices basically come down to
A) Requesting a check,
B) Getting a Neteller account,
or
C) Transferring the cash to a friend with an existing Neteller account and having him pay me back.

A is obviously the easiest, hence my question as to whether the banks will accept such a deposit.

Let's say worst case, I request the check and the bank doesn't accept it. What are my options then?
