About Re$ubmitIt
Harford Bank is here to help you with all of your business needs, including one of your biggest headaches – returned checks.
Harford Bank’s electronic check recovery service, Re$ubmitIt, significantly reduces the burden of collecting funds form NSF checks, while potentially doubling your recovery rate. You’ll collect more returned checks and get 100% of the face value of all checks that are collected electronically!
How does Re$ubmitIt work?
The Re$ubmitIt electronic check recovery service handles the collection process electronically from beginning to end, via the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network for re-presentment directly to the check writer’s bank account.
- Returned checks are sent from Harford Bank to Re$ubmitIt where eligible checks are converted into electronic items for re-presentment to the check writer’s bank account for collection.
- The electronic check file is processed and strategically timed for re-presentation. Presenting checks at proven “smart dates” improves the chance of collection.
- If the item is not recovered on the first electronic re-presentment, it is re-cued for a second electronic re-presentment (third total). If this third presentment fails, the check can be sent to Re$ubmitIt’s FREE secondary collections, or the check can be sent back to you.
- Upon settlement, 100% of the face value of the check is reimbursed to you automatically. The check writer’s account is charged a state-regulated collection fee to cover the cost of collection.

To be eligible for electronic recover, a returned check must:
- Be a personal check to a business (not a business to business check)
-
Be under $2,500
-
Be less than 180 days old from the date of transaction
- Cannot have been already submitted twice, either electronically or by paper draft
What happens to ineligible checks?
Returned items that are less than $2,500 and ineligible for electronic re-presentment are re-submitted to the check writer’s account as a paper draft, subject to eligibility requirements. Items greater than $2,500 are returned to the business.
