WF Changing from High-to-Low to Time-Based Transaction Posting
Wells Fargo will no longer order deposited checks in order of highest amount to lowest amount, which often resulted in overdrafts and angered consumer activist groups. Beginning Aug. 11, checks will be posted based on the date and time they're received. The move comes after a federal judge ordered the bank to pay a $203 millionĀ fine. [7/14/14]
