Secondly, what is a Prenote rather than a direct deposit?
A prenote (or prenotification) is a zero dollar test to validate the employee bank account information. Prenotes are sent and verified before direct deposit payroll can be processed. After the bank routing and account numbers are entered, the prenote status is pending.
You have a couple options and, realistically, it depends on why the direct deposit didn't go through.
