What do you call it when your check gets regected because there isn't any money in your account?

That is a bounced check and it will cost you money in fees levied by the bank and the bank of the person or business you wrote the check to. Each day your account is in the red the more money you will owe in fees. It is also illegal to write a bad check so there can be legal consequences. One bad check is a mistake, but more than one can be seen as a pattern. I suggest you get money into the account as fast as you can.


Is it illegal to post date a check in Arizona?

It is not illegal to post date a check in any state. What is illegal is to write a check with a lack of funds in the account. If you can be sure that the check won't get to your account before the date you have on it that is fine, but you need to be sure you have money to cover it.
