I had deposited my PayPal check on 2 March. And till now it has not been cleared. I asked SBI Bank yesterday and they said it may take upto two weeks. I mean from the day it has been deposted. They checked their record and said it has been sent for clearance. I had deposited a Adsense check in Bank of India and it took 3 days to clear. What s hould I do?
i deposited my pp check on march 5, got cleared in 3 days. In your case, may be citibank is not present in your city.
Both checks were in INR, both deposited in Patiala. One in Bank of India and One in SBI. BOI got cleared in three days, but SBI one is still pending and its more than 15 days. I want to know, can I get a new check issued from PayPal or can I cancel the deposit of SBI check and deposit it in some other bank?
Where are you located, is there any local citybank there? if no then it will take few more days as it will be considered as outstation check
15 days is too much time. Contact your bank manager and tell him that normally it takes 3-5 days for outstation cheques. Show him the copy and remittance advice slip you get with the check.
Looks like the bank wants to keep your money for 20 days to earn interest. Most bank can clear a check within 24hrs but they wont do it, they keep your money for 2-3 days to earn interest and then credit it. I would go easy with 2-3 days but anything more, i would complain to banking ombudsman.
