A stop payment order typically allows you to cancel a check or automatic online payment before its processed. This can help you get your money back in some situations like theft, fraud, a dispute or an error.
If an individual gives their bank reasonable notice to stop the payment of a check they wrote, their bank is required to honor those instructions. If, despite providing reasonable notice, an individuals bank pays a check, that bank is responsible for any damages which the individual may have suffered.
Stop payments are charged a fee by the customers financial institution, usually the same as a fee for a bounced check. The customer can usually call their financial institution to ask for an immediate stop payment to be issued, with the requirement they come in within a few days and sign a written order.
When the bank executes a stop payment request, it prevents the check from clearing when the check recipient attempts to cash it at the receiving bank. However, unlike a bounced check, a stop payment is not permanent, and the request could remain in place for at up to six months, depending on the financial institution.
Reasons to stop payment The check was lost or stolen: In these cases, you may want to stop payment on the original check and send the payee a new one. The check contains an error: You may want to stop payment on the original check so that you may issue a new one that has accurate information.

You must act quickly banks cannot stop payment on checks that have already been processed or cleared. Stop payment fees typically range from $25 to $35, though some premium accounts waive these charges. Oral stop payment requests last only 14 days, while written requests are honored for six months.
If someone attempts to cash a check that has a stop payment order in place, their request may be denied. In that case, they wouldnt be able to cash the check. Its an extra reassurance if you lose a check and someone finds it. Once a check has been cashed, however, a stop payment order would have no effect whatsoever.
