Stopping Payment on Convenience Checks

If your organization uses convenience checks, and your program administrator has granted you permission, you stop payment on your check; otherwise, contact your program administrator for assistance.

To stop payment on convenience checks:

  1. Click the My Accounts item on the PaymentNet menu bar.

  2. In the Account Number column, click the account number for which you want to stop payment on a check.

  3. In the I’d Like To... list, click Stop payment on a check.

  4. On the Convenience Checks - Stop Payment screen, verify that the Account Number and Account Name are correct.

  5. Complete the following fields:

    Check Range/Number

    Specify one or more checks on which you want to stop payment by entering either a single check number or a range of numbers separated by a dash (-). The range is inclusive; for example, if you enter the range 220-227, payment will be stopped on checks numbered 220, 227, and all checks in between.

    Check Date

    Enter the date the check was written. You can click the calendar icon and select the date, or you can enter the date manually, using the mm/dd/yyyy format.

    Check Amount $

    Enter the dollar amount for which the check was made.

    Payee Name

    Enter the name of the individual or business to which the check was made.

  6. Click Continue.

Note:    Stop payments take effect eight business days after the stop is issued. If you need a more immediate response, contact your program administrator.
