New checking accounts often have holds put upon the deposits unless they are in cash. Why did you not just withdraw the cash from your old checking account to deposit into your new one?

Cheque holding is typical of all financial institutions and their policy towards said is openly disclosed to you. You failing to inform yourself of the relevant policy(ies) is your fault alone.

Also, most people would be happy to be "broke" and still have $7000.

As was said, either cash, or you could have gotten a cashier's check from Suntrust. Did you really think that Wells Fargo (or any bank) would just take a personal check for 25 grand without putting a hold on it? As The Fact Police said, if you should have asked about the hold policy before you deposited the check.

Well, I totally agreed on the holding check fact but holding more than 2 weeks is reasonable to you all ? none of you is right because they told me if I deposited directly to the bank teller it would have been released quicker ! the only mistake I made is being too honest ! from the old checking account to the new checking account, and the both accounts belong to me, I know there are rules, there are laws, but there are also human being . Have anyone ever make a mistake ? an honest mistake ? what if my family doesn't have anything to eat during holiday ? since all our money is sitting in some where ? Bank do those procedures to help their customers not to be a machine run institute ! Well, if you, the fact police said "most people would be happy to be broken and still have 7000 ", you know what "fact police " ? that is for my children's college tuition and it dues anytime . I recommend if you could not help out, please just shut up !

None of us can help Lynn, we do not work at the bank. You just have to wait out the hold period and pinch your 700, 000 pennies until it is over.

Close the account and deposit your money somewhere else.

"the only mistake I made is being too honest"

No, your mistake was you either ignoring, or being ignorant of, the bank's policy with respect to cheque holding.

Lesson learned Lynn, ask about the policy the next time you change banks. I hope this doesn't crimp your Christmas and you have a merry one.

Thanks Paul ! I just brought the whole conversation in this page to Wells Fargo Customer Service and they told me my fund will be released with in 24 hours !
For those who said I am dumb, why can't I do this nor do that ? I hope you could use your brain in something more productivity and keep in mind: People always first !
