Stop Payment requests are only processed after 14 business days have passed since the original check was issued.
When submitting a request for a Stop Payment, make sure that a claim has been initiated and is in a Paid status, the address where the check was mailed has been verified, and the claim is set up to pay the correct payee.

We MUST verify the check has not been cashed in TIMX Claims prior to entering a Stop Payment request.
BPO Leadership will confirm a stop payment is needed, advise the agent to set expectations with the customer and Leadership will enter the Stop Payment Request.
Stop Payment Review Process
- Verify the mailing address where the original check was sent and the name of the payee.
- If necessary, offer to send the new check to a different mailing address, and clearly note the new information on the form as well as in the Service Job Comments.
- Open the Service Job and click the Claim hyperlink to verify the claim information.
- If there is no claim hyperlink, a claim has not yet been created for the Service Job, so a reimbursement has not been processed and approved.
- Claim details can be reviewed in the following sections:
- Claim: displays the approved amount and claim status (status must be Paid).
- Claim Payment: displays the customer date paid, customer payment type (check), customer payment number (check number) and customer total amount paid (amount of the check).
- Claim Adjudication: displays the customer total.
- Advise the customer that if they receive the original check, they should not cash or deposit it.
- Their bank will charge them a fee for attempting to deposit/cash a stopped check and we will not reimburse the customer for this fee.
- Provide the customer with the Customer Payment Number on the claim which is the original check number.
- BPO Agents: Send Claim and Customer information to leadership to confirm a Stop Payment will be entered, set the proper expectations with the customer advising if a new check will be issued. Leadership will then enter the Stop Payment request if needed.
