Vendor Payment Issue
I have been working with a kitchen cabinet installer. I have worked with them in the past with no issues. This time they mis-cut my refrigerator panels which caused an over month long delay in finishing my kitchen. When they were finally complete, I asked how I could pay them and they suggested by check so I wrote them a check. A few hours later he texted me saying he lost the check and I should cancel it. I panicked as I didn't write down the check number. I called my bank and guessed at the check number but because I didn't know for sure I can't be sure it has been cancelled. The vendor has been texting me non stop asking me to zelle him the money but the whole thing feels a little fishy to me. Thoughts or suggestions?

Wait 30 days, if the check isn't cashed zelle the contractor. You still run the risk of it being cashed.
