Summary Of Bad Check Laws By State

July 11, 2012 - PRLog -- Bad Credit MD, a  free On-line information guide that helps people with credit problems in the United States, Canada, Ireland, United Kingdom, India, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand has completed  its list of criminal and civil penalties for writing bad checks in the U.S. by state. These bad check laws can be viewed at http://www.badcreditmd.com/bad-check-laws/.

Writing a bad check is immoral and illegal. No business can stay alive if people are not paying for the goods that they buy. Accidentally bouncing a check happens from time to time. It is usually an embarrassing situation that results in a small fine. However, it could be a crime that can land you in jail for several months or years. Avoid jail time by simply writing checks that you know you can cover.

Overdraft protection can be a good way to avoid bouncing checks and saving on overdraft fees. You start by setting up a secondary account. Usually this is a savings account or a credit card. If the primary account is overdrawn, then it will dip into the secondary account. Overdraft protection may have a monthly fee, and you may be charged a smaller fee for having to dip into the secondary account. Research the applicable fees to see if the protection is worth it.
