Walked into a Chase branch with a $43,000 Wells Fargo insurance claim check. Informed there’d be a 10-day hold. I exploded. (I didn’t need the $ immediately. It was the principal of the thing.) Went back to the car and drove 1000 feet over to the WF branch. Same crap. 10 days. Even if I opened a WF account with a WF CHECK! Went back to Chase, giving up. Silver lining. I manage all my cash better today. It’s hand to hand combat, so you get good at it.
