I sent my mother a check for christmas, due to "Bank Rules" they will not release her the funds for 10 days because it is an out of state check.. My banks President offered his celll number for them to contact to verify the funds, However Grace rules say " we have ot hold the check for 10 days" So.... Merry Christmas Graco !!!...I hope you enjoy the money your hkeeping from her for the next 10 days..
