The Reddit post makes clear that they didn’t. They’d paid with a cashier’s check, which means the money was withdrawn when they wrote the check.
Tesla then never cashed it. That’s on them.
- newZWhoDis 3y agoIf I made a $50k cashiers check and it goes months without being cashed I want a notification from my bank.
- hugh-avherald 3y agoIt's essentially cash. If you hand someone $50 you don't get a notification if it's not deposited.
- newZWhoDis 3y agoIt’s not though, it is a bank essentially holding my funds in escrow for payment to a specified party. If that payment is not executed I want to know.
- lightbritefight 3y agoCashiers checks are not traditional checks that only withdraw funds on deposit. A casihiers check debits the money from you account on issue. As soon as the bank gives you the check, the money is out of your account. A cashiers check cannot bounce for this reason. Its why it or a wore transfer are the required payment type for large purchases of this type.
