They actually go by many names. Most businesses will refer to them as a dishonored check, meaning that you wrote a check that your bank then refused to honor. Other common terms include bounced check, squishy check, and a rubber check. Banks often refer to them as non-sufficient funds check, because your account did not have the required funds.

Alternative names for a "bad check" are "inadequate funds," or, more commonly, a "cold check. " There are few legal terms used beyond these, except "lack of payment" or "fraud" in severe cases.

I think it is called a bounced check. If you write a check that is about to bounce in your bank account. Unfortunately, the bank will charge around $70 each time between the bounced check fee and overdraft fee.Learn more at: Payday Loan
