How do I stop payment on a "bill pay" check?

There are a couple things to consider before you place a stop payment on a check:

  • Payments already in process or completed can't be stopped.
  • To stop a scheduled payment, you'll need to submit your request at least three business days before the scheduled payment date. 
  • Paper checks are typically good for six months from the date they're issued.
