Rates Current as of Friday February 10, 2012

« I wrote a check that was returned because of insufficient funds in my account. But the bank never notified me, so other checks bounced and I got hit with several overdraft fees. Shouldn’t the bank have sent me a notice?

How am I notified when my bank has been closed by the FDIC? »

Can a bank place a stop payment on an electronic funds transfer?

Yes. You may stop payment of a preauthorized withdrawal, recurring monthly payments or a one time scheduled funds transfer. You can do this by notifying the bank within 3 business days before the transfer is scheduled to be made. You can notify the bank orally or in writing. However, if you notify the bank orally, the bank may require that you then provide written confirmation within 14 days. If you fail to provide written notice by the deadline, the oral stop payment order will no longer be effective.
