    Hi,
    Will a bank investigate my account and call the police if a turn up with £17k cash and ask them to deposit it into my account? Thanks.

    Only if it's in 50p coins.
  • deposit it via their deposit machine, I think most of the banks have them now.
    No questions asked.

    Then the account might still get frozen for suspicious activity.

    Hi,

    Expect to be questioned the origin of the money, but of course you will not get investigated unless you have done something that requires you to be investigated.
