If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in an account you have with us. Those funds will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have been available if you had deposited it.
If we accept for deposit a check that is drawn on another bank, we may make funds from that check available for withdrawal immediately but delay your availability to withdraw a corresponding amount of funds that you have on deposit in another account with us. The funds in the other account would then not be available for withdrawal until the time periods for the type of check that you deposited.

Funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
We believe a check you deposit will not be paid, or
You deposit checks totaling more than $5,000 on any one day, or
You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid, or
You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months, or
There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment.
We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available no later than the seventh business day after the day of your deposit.
