I scanned a check yesterday with here, but i have no real confirmation of a pending clearing of the check is this normal? Or does the money just show up in my account after a week?
Scanning checks takes more time as the check has to clear. If you don't have any details after 7 days, suggest contacting customer support for assistance.
