· Issue: The customer is attempting to deposit a check into the account from which it was issued.

· Solution: Ensure the check is deposited into a different account.

Unclear Check Image

· Issue: The check image was not captured clearly.

· Solution:

-Flatten the check if it is folded or crumpled.

-Keep the check within the corner guidelines of the app.

-Ensure all numbers at the bottom of the check and the endorsement on the back are readable.

-Keep the phone flat and steady, holding the camera square to reduce skewing.

-Take photos in a well-lit area and avoid shadows across the check.

-Place the check on a solid dark background before taking the image.

Account Ownership

· Issue: The payee(s) must be an owner on the account it is being deposited into. Checks payable to a business and deposited into an individual account will be rejected.

· Solution: Ensure the check is deposited into an account owned by the payee(s) listed on the check.

Post-Dated Checks

· Issue: The check is dated for a future date.

· Solution: Deposit the check only on or after the date written on the check.

Unacceptable Item

Stale-Dated Item

· Issue: The check is more than 180 days old, unless a different time frame is listed on the check.

· Solution: Check for any specific time frame mentioned on the check (e.g., "Void after one year") and ensure the check is deposited within that period.

· Example 2: Money orders that state "Mobile deposit prohibited" will be rejected.

Money orders that state 'Mobile deposit prohibited'
