    Probably a dumb question but drawing on a (cleared?) check in HK?

    I have an account with HSBC and lodged a check today from another HK bank, the funds are now showing in my account. Is it safe to withdraw these funds, has the check cleared fully from the other side already and can't be cancelled?

    I don't think HSBC will let you, usually you have to wait a day or more, check with them

    The funds are in your account but not included in the "funds available" total.
