"It HAD to be good, otherwise why would you have cashed it!"
"Why didn't you tell me the check was bad!"
--We try so hard to ask questions about unusual deposits, something customers can get extremely offended by, but do you know how many checks we see in a day?
"What do you mean I owe you $3000 for a returned check? The hold on the check was released, so it was good!"
--Another little tip... legally banks have maximum hold limits. 5 business days for a check under $5000, unless we have reason to suspect it is a bad check (in which case we will try not to deposit it at all). Scam checks are generally designed with very distant routing numbers that will sometimes keep the check bouncing around the system until after the set hold release date. Some checks have taken over a month before we get back word that they are no good.
