On November 3, 2023, multiple US banks experienced banking deposit delays due to an error at The Clearing House, a payment processing network. A lot of customers are worried about a possible cyberattack.

The ACH system, which is operated by The Clearing House, allows banks to send electronic payments to each other.

This system is used for a variety of transactions, including direct deposit paychecks, customer bill payments, and government benefits.

Customers are experiencing banking deposit delays

The Clearing House stated that the issue "impacted less than 1% of the daily ACH volume in the United States" and that they were "working with the financial institutions who have customers that have been impacted".

They also confirmed that the issue was caused by a "manual error" and was not linked to a cybersecurity issue. Despite the reassurance that only a small percentage of transactions were affected, many people still experienced significant inconvenience and stress as a result of the delay.

Widespread impact

The deposit delays caused significant disruption to both individuals and businesses. Some customers were unable to access their paychecks or other important funds, while others were unable to pay bills on time.

This could have led to late fees and other financial penalties. Businesses that rely on ACH payments to receive revenue may have experienced lost sales and cash flow problems. Additionally, businesses that were unable to pay their suppliers on time may have faced additional fees and penalties.

Which banks are affected by the banking deposit delays?

The Clearing House did not disclose the names of the banks that were affected by the banking deposit delays. However, some banks have acknowledged that their customers were impacted.

For example, Bank of America flashed a statement on its mobile app, warning customers about the potential for deposit delays. It's essential to note that even if your bank is not explicitly listed as being affected, you may still experience delays in your transactions.

It's always a good idea to check with your bank to confirm whether they were impacted and to understand how it may affect your specific situation.

    Even banks gotta eat they sure love the taste of the green. Pretty soon folks will be lining up for used bank sales people, if I can afford my pension at half a years curb for less I might save big in the long run by the time I?m in my nineties or hundreds.

    Oh the possibilities!

    “I am so effn tired of the hyperbolic writing by ghacks’ hack writers.”

    I too am tired of how undependable “news” writers have become. They should all be forced to stamp “For Entertainment Use Only” across all their webpages, and on their foreheads.

    But … we also cannot depend on any mainstream news saying otherwise, because certainly most of us comprehend that the government is and has been manipulating reporters and publishers for many years now, and government would naturally deny anything impacting their control of banks and such.

    The issue “impacted less than 1% of the daily ACH volume in the United States” and “A spokesperson for The Clearing House said that the issue affected a single file and therefore a batch of payments, and that the matter pertained to a narrow processing issue caused by human error.” (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-03/federal-reserve-clearing-house-say-bank-payment-issues-resolved). Yet Emre Çitak reports “Widespread impact” (three days after the matter was already resolved).

    Later in the very same day as the glitch occurred, it was reported that “Issue that caused deposit delays for some Bank of America customers, resolved, Fed says”. (https://www.fox29.com/news/issue-that-caused-deposit-delays-for-some-bank-of-america-customers-resolved-fed-says)

    I am so effn tired of the hyperbolic writing by ghacks’ hack writers.
