I Bond

By Terry Savage on November 13, 2022 | Chicken Money

On 10/7/22 I placed an order for a $10,000 I Bond, On that date Treasury Direct took $500 from my checking account with the note “Precertification from Treasury Direct.” On 10/25/22 Treasury Direct took $10,000 from my checking account with the note “Withdrawal ACH Treasury Direct.” I’m confused as my Treasury account only reflects $10,000. Can you explain why? Thank you!

Please look again. Are you SURE the $500 wasn’t returned to your account? If it is still not there, please write back and I’ll pass your question on to Treasury. That might have been a “test” authorization, but the money would have been returned as a deposit.
