    They will not reply to mails...
    The only option is phone call..

    I think they charge some $ for stopping the check they previously issued.

    Earlier I used to receive the check within 25-30 days. That's why, this time I am a bit anxious for the delay.

    They use to charge $15 for stop payment and $5 again for re-issue the check. That's okay, but again I have to wait for another 45-60 days, that's why I haven't requested them for a stop payment till now. :(

    I get mine in 17 days. Each time . I think you should call them up. But mostly it will a problem with your country's local posting service. I dont think Antartica has a postal service though
