Or you could use mobile deposit for up to $50K.


OP here. it finally showed up this morning. not in my account yet but shows as deposit made. i love ally but i think this is one area they can improve.

thanks all.


I think if you're gonna have checks like that coming in every once in a while, it might be good to maintain a checking account at a brick and mortar bank. Can always transfer everything to Ally later. I'd be really hesitant to mail a six fig check via snail mail.

Not with Ally , but I mail deposits to my bank every 1-2 weeks (business-related, long story). This last week, they were taking much longer than usual. I attribute it to the post office being slow with all the holiday mail rush, along with understaffing at the bank's processing center due to the holidays.

Just mailed one on 12/24 and I'm hoping it clears before 12/31.

I like Ally Bank but I totally agree that having deposits posted takes longer than a brick and mortar bank, even electronically are slow to post.
