ORIGINAL: subrob1967 The FDIC insurance is a joke anyway, what they don't tell you is, the government has up to TWENTY years to make a payment to you, and then another TEN years to completely pay the account off. Do you have 30 years to wait for your money? I'm not sure where you got this. It isn't in any regulation or law I could find. The law establishing the FDIC requires payment of insured accounts "as soon as possible." Historically it is usually a couple of days after the banks failure that insured deposits are available either from the FDIC or a new bank that has taken over the failed banks deposits. I couldn't find any instance where an insured account wasn't available after 5 business days.
