KNOWLEDGE BASE
What if a Zelle® payment was sent to the wrong person or for the wrong amount?
If you inadvertently sent money to a recipient, you didn't intend or for the wrong amount, here are some steps you can take:
- If the recipient is not registered for Zelle®, you can cancel the payment through digital banking.
- If the payment is completed or you can't contact the recipient to retrieve your funds, you can file a dispute.
- To get started, call us anytime at 800-USBANKS (872-2657). We accept relay calls.
- If the amount sent is less than what was intended process another payment for the difference.
It's always a good idea to double-check the validity of your recipient's information before sending a payment with Zelle®.
