The speed of check-processing already has increased in response to check-system improvements other than Check 21. Thus, even now, once a check is deposited with a bank, it is almost always delivered overnight to the paying bank and debited from the checkwriter's account the next business day. Check-processing speeds should continue to increase, over time, as banks make further operational changes in response to Check 21. That means money may be deducted from your checking account faster. Before you write a check, it's always best to make sure your checking account has enough money in it to cover the check.

Bounced check fees are fees that are charged for the writing of a check when the account holder from whence the check is drawn has insufficient funds to cover the amount of the check. These fees are set by each bank and can vary from bank to bank. If an account holder feels that they have been incorrectly assessed a fee, most banks will allow the account holder to explain the situation and can void the fee on a case by case basis.
A draft fee is a fee charged by a bank for processing a payment or withdrawal from a checking account. It is typically charged when a check or other form of debit is presented for payment but there are insufficient funds in the account to cover the transaction. This fee serves as a penalty for the account holder's overdraft or insufficient funds.
