Check deposits can take up to nine days to be available (although I believe that to be an extreme case). --- Quote ---This is the base for a lot of scams that make people deposit bad checks and pay back some sum of their own money. The check bounces after a few weeks, but by that time it is too late. --- End quote --- --- End quote --- Somewhere way above this, I posted a link to the actual regulations for US banking. |
