returned check question

You should be fine...I've done this before (unfortunately) and as long as the check clears you should be able to write checks to merchants. Had the check not cleared the second time then the grocery store would have sent it to collections and they would have contacted you to take care of it. during that time you might not be able to write checks. But after the check is paid off you can write checks again...this is my experience anyway.

It's entirely up to the policy of that individual merchant. I don't think you'll have any problems. But if you aren't certain, call them up and ask. What's the worst that can happen?

For the most part the supermarket is notified only when the check is returned to them after the 2nd attempt. However, this may not stop them from trying to collect a return check fee.

This has recently happened to me. You might have to pay a fee, I would contact the store and see what their policy is.

If the check was cleared on the 2nd attempt I would refuse to pay the fee.

I am not certain that I would refuse to pay the fee to the store. More than likely they were charged a fee by their bank when the check was sent back as NSF.

I had a check returned for NSF, only because my deposit did not post before the check did. What happens now? Will it automatically be resubmitted for a 2nd attempt?

Cassiefl, it depends on the person/bank/store that you wrote the check to. Most of the time, they will run it through a second time. I'd call and ask.
