Q. How do I order an ATM/Visa Debit Card?

Q. What is your check hold policy?
A. Our policy is to follow federal regulations. Availability of some types of check deposits is delayed; the amount of the delay depends on the type of check, as described below. During the delay, you may not withdraw the funds in cash and we may not use the funds to pay checks that you have written. Please remember that even after we have made funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds, you are still responsible for checks you deposit which are returned to us unpaid.

Funds from the following deposits are available on the day of the deposit:

  • Electronic Direct Deposits
  • Wire Transfers
  • Cash

Funds from the following deposits are available on the first business day after the day of the deposit:

  • U.S. Treasury checks that are payable to you
  • Checks drawn on Guaranty Bank

Any of the following items deposited in person to a Guaranty Bank branch employee at a teller window and payable to you. You are required to use a special deposit slip available from our tellers:

  • State and local government checks
  • Cashier's, certified, and teller's checks

Other check deposits have the first $100 available on the first business day after the day of the deposit, and the remaining funds are available on the second business day after the day of the deposit.

If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your account. Those funds will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have been available if you had deposited it.

Q. Who can I contact if I have a question on my available funds?
A. Our Customer Service Center is available Monday through Friday 8 AM to 7 PM (CST) and Saturday 9 AM to 3 PM (CST) to assist you.
