I'm assuming you're just asking if how long it takes for a merchant to know if a check has bounced. Checks are now electronically sent to their clearing houses which means they are being processed faster, and checks clear faster. If the check is local, the merchant will know within 3 business days (its usually next day though), and within 5 if its unlocal. If you constantly bounce checks, your bank may report you to chexsystems and close your account. Once the bank reports you, you will see a chexsystems report within 1 to 10 business days depending on if they use electronic or paper reporting.

What happens to the stuff on Chex system when you file bankruptcy before the 5 years is up?

Generally, nothing happens to the Chex Systems report when you file bankruptcy. In other words, while debts are discharged by the bankruptcy, this doesn't mean banks have to stop telling each other (via Chex Systems or any other bad check reporting service) that you wrote bad checks. Most people I have seen who were in Chex Systems continued to be in Chex Systems even after filing bankruptcy. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts and law, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person. Speak to a lawyer for specific advice. If you have any questions, please refer to a lawyer in your jurisdiction. Thanks!


Can your bank account be closed if you've had the account for 6 months and you've just been reported on the Chex Systems?

possible. After my five years with chex systems passed, I opened a checking account and the bank closed it after two months due to my chex systems record. They froze it and then closed it without notice to me. I found out when the ATM card quit working. I then had to get Chex systems to write a letter to them because my record should have been gone after five years, but that did not help me get my account back. Yes, if the account holder resides in a state where the banking laws allow the action without due process of law.

If i write a check at grocery store will it accept my check if I'm on chex system?

It depends on if they use Chex Systems to validate the check or not- not everyone does cause it costs them money. We have a local grocery store that does not use them and we can write a check there. It's not a mom and pop store either, it's a local chain of 8 grocery stores. I also know the Ace by us doesn't use them either.
