Wire Transfers

Wire Transfers Articles

Wire transfers move money directly from one bank account to another, often across state or international lines. You're here because you've sent a wire that didn't arrive, received one that looks fraudulent, or you're trying to understand whether a wire can be stopped or reversed. Unlike credit card transactions or ACH transfers, wires are harder to undo once they leave your bank—which is why understanding how they work and what protections exist matters before and after you send one.

These articles explain what happens inside the wire transfer process, how long money actually takes to arrive, what steps to take if a wire goes missing, and how to spot common wire fraud schemes. You'll learn what your bank can and cannot do to recover a wire, what information you need to provide when reporting a problem, and realistic timelines for getting answers from financial institutions.
