Can I get a voided check from my bank?

Hello folks… I need to provide a voided check for setting up direct deposit, but I’m not sure if I can get one from my bank. Has anyone here successfully obtained a voided check from their bank for this purpose? Any tips on how to request it or alternatives if it’s not possible? TIA

Hi, Yes, you can get a voided check from your bank. You can either visit a branch in person, request it through online banking, or contact customer service. Some banks also allow you to print a voided check from their website. This check will have your account details but will be marked “void” to prevent misuse.

Hello sister, do banks charge any fees while issuing voided checks?

Yes, you can get a voided check from your bank. You have two options: request a voided check in person at a branch or use your online banking platform to print one. To void a check, write “VOID” across the front before making copies or printing. This process ensures the check can’t be used for transactions.

You can ask your bank or credit union for a voided check if you don’t have a checkbook. The teller at your bank institution’s physical location can print you a voided check to use.

  • Visit your bank and ask a teller to print one (if they have a physical location).
  • Check online banking if you can request one there.

The “VOID” stamp means you can’t pay with it, but it still has your information.
