Typically this happens when they suspect fraud or money laundering.

Ok but why would they suspect that I haven't done anything part from get paid and pay my bills

Because they suffer from paranoia and need medical help.

How much have you got paid? Have you done anything out of the ordinary with your accounts recently - larger amounts in and out etc?

This must be hugely frustrating if you *really* don't know anything about it. If that's the case, chances are some money has landed in your account by mistake that has triggered alarms.

If it was me I would be at my branch on Monday and not leaving until I had spoken to the manager and got some agreement on when I would have my account back.
