Re: Incorrect deposit in account number

Dear Sir or Madam:

I am a customer with bank name. My account is held in your name and is number enter number again here.

Upon checking my most recent statement, I discovered an error regarding funds I deposited. After reviewing my records, I am certain amount in question is incorrect.

Now tell your bank the mistake you have found. Below are two examples of possible deposit mistakes:

I deposited $200 in my account on July 24, 2003, and my statement shows a deposit of only $20.

I deposited $200 in my account on July 24, 2003, but my statement shows no deposit for that date or the next business day. (You need to check your statement for transactions the following day, too, since the time of day that you make a deposit could affect when it is posted to your account.)

I have the receipt that I received from the teller when I made this deposit. A copy of that receipt, along with my statement that does not reflect this deposit, are enclosed for your review.

I appreciate your prompt attention to resolving this matter so that I have access to the money that I deposited on date.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call me at your daytime telephone number. I’ll also check back with you on the status of this request and the action you have taken to rectify this bank error.

Sincerely,
Your Signature
