A simple problem with tax can get all your accounts frozen for investigation, 

That’s a rather far fetched example. HMRC don’t just freeze all your bank accounts. There would be substantial communication between the HMRC and yourself before that simple problem spirals out of control

Yes, but it would be ever further before His Majesty's Pleasure gets involved, which is what we were talking about.

The only time that I had a decent amount of cash to pay in was when selling a car. The buyer had over £3,000 in cash. We went to the Post Office to pay the funds into my Co-op account. I let the cashier handle the money, check for forgeries etc., and the money was accepted without any problem into my account. I think that the OP has learnt a difficult lesson and will have to wait it out.

Every January I would pay 3-5k in cash into the bank, then make a mortgage overpayment.
Without issues, just said I’m self employed and worked all over Christmas which was true.
That was 10 years ago or more, I suppose things have changed.

But this carries risk too. There are many reports of purchasers pulling a fast one and telling their bank they've been scammed. The bank then contact your bank who freeze your account.

In what way do they say you have scammed them?

It's not scamming the bank. It's claiming someone else has scammed them,

I know, I'll rephrase the question. What kind of scam do the purchasers claim you perpetrated.

Video you taking the dog to their home, then get them to sign saying they received it and then leave & turn off the video.

Fake dog? They would need to prove that.
