Chase holding check for 1.5 weeks?
« on: September 18, 2016, 01:55:44 PM »
I deposited a certified check, and they claim they are holding it for 6-7 biz days. (which is about 1.5 weeks from now)

Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Is there a way to get them to release it earlier?

Great! And are they usually accommodating to such requests?

I just dealt with this. It depends if the bank that issued the check will verify funds over the phone. By me they didn't. I had to have the person who gave me the check go into a branch and sit with a banker who was then able to get the issuing bank to verify funds.

Had this too for a very large check. Banker told me if I get a printout of the statement showing that it cleared on the outgoing bank, he'll remove the hold immediately. Certain banks will even allow a statement on your phone as proof. This may not be relevant to you, as I wrote myself a check, so I was able to prove it very easily...

I called up, this time was smooth, took about 10 minutes for the rep to call the other bank and all good.


Than you everyone for your helpful advice!

Y'all should be calling the CPC number. Very solid reps.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.
