    This is absolutely appalling and it is of no concern to the bank whether you have a loan agreement or any other documentation in place

    their responsibility ends with holding the payment for a short time whilst they talk to the account holder and if the account holder says yes that was me making the payment and I want to do it that should be the end of the matter

    it is becoming far too commonplace these days and I would complain and get as much compensation as you can

    it is your money and as long as the bank are satisfied that the correct customer has authorised the payment than they should let it through

    And yet when banks let money go out of an account that seems suspicious people will kick and scream that they should have prevented the money going as it was fraud.

    Where is Porto Rico btw?

    She is from the generation who hides her money under the mattress.

    She was quite happy to invest with the Prudential?

    If this thread is not a wind-up then I despair for the OP, and what it says about how he looks after his mother.

    It appears he cannot even spell the name right of where this supposed friend lives, suggesting absolutely no due diligence on his part. I wonder if it is actually his friend, and not his morher!!!8217;s.

    Does your mother have some idea of reducing her capital in order to claim means tested benefits?

    If so, she needs to look into "Deprivation of Capital".

    I think the OP is female.
