A dishonoured cheque (also spelled check) is a cheque that the bank on which it is drawn declines to pay (“honour”). There are a number of reasons why a bank might refuse to honour a cheque, with non-sufficient funds ( NSF ) being the most common, indicating that there are insufficient cleared funds in the account on which the cheque was drawn.
