La banque peut rejeter un chèque présenté au paiement pour provision insuffisante. Cette sanction génère ce qu’on appelle un incident de paiement mettant l’émetteur du chèque dans une situation dite d’interdiction bancaire, c'est-à-dire dans l’impossibilité d’émettre d’autres chèques ou de régler par carte bancaire, sauf s’il régularise sa situation de débiteur. 3, record 1, French, - provision%20insuffisante
