P800 refund cheque in post

Hi, I'm due £4000 in a refund, but the online refund option will not accept my uk revolut details (not a physical bank) so this will be posted to Ireland in about 6 weeks. Will this be registered post? If it gets lost/stolen in the postal system is there any protection from HMRC? I have tried 3 different bank accounts an HMRC will not recognise any of them. I cant open a uk bank account as I'm just here for work for a few months. Thanks for your help

Hi there, Thanks for the reply. I am contacting you now as requested. (Contacting you via phone is pretty impossible, getting hung up on after being on hold for half an hour etc. ) Can you sent it registered delivery and take the cost from the refund? I'm currently in scotland but its going to be sent to Ireland. Thanks again for your help .
