Can you ask the bank to remove a hold
You can ask your bank to remove a check hold, but that doesn't guarantee the bank will comply. If the bank has reason to believe that the check may be fraudulent or that the check writer lacks sufficient funds to cover it, the hold may remain in place for the full window that's allowed by law.
