On Saturday, Sept. 28, I made a check deposit at a Wells Fargo ATM in Laurel, MD. The check was written by a state government agency in the amount of $3396. Upon completing my deposit, I retrieved my receipt which ONLY stated the posting date of the check, NOT the day the HOLD would be lifted. To my dismay, I realized my money would not be made available until 13 days later, October 11. I think that this is outrageous. I completely understand the need to place a hold on checks to ensure the bank can actually collect the money; however, 13 days is bit ridiulous.
