    Have a question about wiring funds....


    I need to wire some money. I have to transfer funds to another account, from which I will wire the money.

    Anyways, is there generally a "wait" time that must be done before funds can be wired?


    I am using Compass bank, and will try to stop by there later today to find out.

    I have never wired money before.

    Any info is greatly appreciated.

    differs from bank to bank...but it should be instantaneous. that's the idea, anyway.

    Wire the money to my Harrisdirect account as a test and I will tell you if it worked or not.

    LOL. I didn't know if there was a law or something that makes you have the money in your account first for a certain amount of days before it can be wired. I guess not.

    It seems that your question is more in regards to a hold on funds in the account that money will be withdrawn from.

    I don't recall a specific law on that matter.......... the bank's policy, your account history etc will be the factors to be considered.

    Did you very recently add funds to that account from a check or something else that would make the bank hesitant to allow your wire transfer to go through?

    Well, I haven't quite transfered the funds over yet. It needs to be wired by the 4th and am wondering if I will need to write the check to transfer the funds today when I have the time.
