I still remember people having 3cent checks from Seth Warshavsky bounce ;) Having dealt with Seth and Frog Telecom - his 900 biz that went bankrupt owing me several thousand dollars, I knew not to promote his programs. But yes, there have been several LARGE programs that have bounced checks. Maxcash bounced a few when their bank account was frozen. I had over $40K coming to me and it was right around Christmas - I was in a panic! Yep, it got straightened out but again, another large company that bounced checks. IIRC ARS had an issue when they were changing banks and some checks bounced. Was it a banking issue? Of course it was. Does MY bank care if it was a banking issue on the check writer's bank? Nope. All they care about is that a check I deposited bounced.

I've been writing checks for 30 years and the only times I've bounced them was when I was younger and stupidly playing "float" and about 10 years ago when I made a 7 figure deposit FROM my business account TO my business account (note: banks don't pay attention to the deposit information on the back of the check - grab the wrong deposit slip and you're screwed) and my personal checks started bouncing. It really isn't that hard to not have NSF checks but it happens.
